Clara Pereira is a stunning, 18 year old, model and blogger from Garanhuns, a city in the Brazilian state of Pernambuco.
Clara was born with spina bifida myelomeningocele. This is a spinal malformation which damages the spinal cord in varying degrees of severity. Because Clara’s spinal cord was completely severed, she never had any feeling in her legs and has been completely paralyzed from the waist down her entire life. As the muscles in her legs didn’t develop properly, she also has some very slight deformities in her feet. Luckily, Clara’s upper body wasn’t affected at all and she never had any serious health issues.
Clara states she really doesn’t mind being in a wheelchair. She always strives to live life to the fullest and emphasizes that even if she had the choice, she wouldn’t want to live her life in any other way.
Next to her studies, Clara is often surrounded by friends with whom she loves to go shopping, check out movies at the cinema or have a day out at an amusement park. Besides that, she can often be found at the beach and loves to swim.
Clara has always been very interested in fashion and was never shy about having her picture taken. Inspired by models on social media and encouraged by her friends and parents, she now regularly poses in photo shoots!
Clara has her own Instagram page where she gives a cool insight in her life and where you can also see some of her work!
