As an infant, Patience lost her left leg to a rare disease called proximal femoral focal deficiency and has lived with a prosthetic leg ever since.
But she can still do this:
In fact, she gained national recognition last year when she joined the University of Arkansas cheerleading team.
Her prosthetic leg has become an inspirational symbol, which Patience proudly shows off with a zebra design.
Watch this HooplaHa for footage of Patience, now a sophomore, in action and discussing what it's like to be a role model in the public eye.
