I Spent Years Bed-Bound But Now I'm Thriving | BORN DIFFERENT

LAST TIME Jam featured on Born Different, she was learning how to walk again. But now, she is thriving. Jam was born with lymphedema-distichiasis syndrome, which causes extreme swelling in her legs. She was bed-ridden for almost four years after her leg swelled to 150lbs because of an infection and underwent life changing surgery. In the three years since Truly filmed with her, Jam met her boyfriend, Tim, and celebrated her sister, Jasmine, getting married. Jam also recently celebrated her 30th birthday and will be doing a photoshoot to mark this milestone. She said: “I have definitely developed more confidence in myself and I’m more eager to get out there and help and inspire others.”
