Katie Walker came to Shriners Hospital - Los Angeles as an
infant. Born with a heart murmur, one kidney and
a missing tibia, Katie underwent her first surgeries
when she was weeks old.
When
she was a year old, she received her first of
many protheses. Physical therapists at Shriners
taught her to walk. Her undauntable spirit led
her to take on snow skiing, horseback riding,
bowling and competitive golf.
Katie took up golf in high school, playing with her high school team and continues on today. Performing since she
was 9 years old, she recorded her first
country music CD while still in high school and plans a career in the entertainment
field. |
