[VIDEO] Watch How A Backbend Turned A Little Girl Into A Paraplegic, 5-Year Ballerina Begins Long Road To Recovery

Eden Hoelscher had done the backbend three times but the last backbend in her living room one morning has left her paralyzed from the waist down. The little 5-year old ballerina was declared paraplegic by doctors afterward.

This could have happened to anyone, said Eden Hoelscher's mom. On the fourth time, however, she simply collapsed. After which, she couldn't feel her legs anymore. When her mom picked her up to see if she could stand, her knees simply buckled.


Despite what happened, little Eden remained positive and energetic. Her positive attitude never wavered. Now, she's trying a new physical therapy that could turn her spinal back on. The Hoelscher family saw a glimpse of hope as they watch little Eden overcome her injury.

Watch the inspiring video of little Eden as she takes the road to recovery. The video was a report done by Inside Edition.
