Former U.S. Army Sergeant who lost both of her legs in a drunk driving crash is turning tragedy into triumph.
Former U.S. Army Sergeant Kari Miller-Ortiz is an inspiration to many but she doesn't see it that way. For Kari it's all about using her energy and enthusiasm for life to help others reach their goals.
Trapped in the car and losing consciousness, she told her rescuer, "if you need to cut off my legs, I'll forgive you - just get me out." Kari was a member of three U.S. Paralympic Teams, winning Silver in Beijing, Silver in London and Gold in Rio.
