Gabe Adams did not have an easy to start to life. Gabe, who was born in Brazil, was abandoned by his mother. Gabe's mother didn't believe she could care for the boy, who was born without arms or legs, so she abandoned him in the hospital where he was born.

Gabe was placed in an orphanage, but his chances of being adopted were slim. Gabe was born with Hanhart syndrome. Hanhart syndrome is a congenital defect that prevents limbs from forming correctly.

Janelle Adams was shopping at her local supermarket in Kaysville, Utah when she saw a photo of Gabe. Janelle and her husband Ron already had 13 biological children, but she knew she needed to do something to help this boy.

Janelle and Ron flew to Brazil and brought Gabe back to the Shriner’s Hospital for Children in Salt Lake City, Utah.

At first, Janelle and Ron Adams were terrified. How would they teach Gabe to walk? Would he ever be able to care for himself? What would happen to him after they were gone?

Much to the surprise of the Adams family, Gabe taught them a thing or two about life.

Gabe Adamas has never let his disability hold him back. Not only did he learn how to get around without his wheelchair, but he also learned how to dance.

Gabe joined the Davis High School dance team his sophomore year of high school. After other students saw Gabe perform, they wanted to hear more about his story.

Gabe wanted the world to know that he never would have accomplished anything without the support of his amazing parents. He wrote an article, published by Huffington Post, thanking his adoptive parents for teaching him to eat, write, swim and use the stairs by himself.

Gabe is most thankful for his ability to dance. When his family moved to a new school district, Gabe started taking private lessons. Dancing gives him the ability to express himself through movement. It's something Gabe never thought he'd be able to do.

Gabe enjoys hip-hop and contemporary dance. He is also a motivational speaker and an avid swimmer.
