Bone Cancer Survivor Can Rotate Her Leg 180 Degrees

[Initech]

Cancer treatment gave Jen O'Shea a very surprising talent. The Toronto woman can turn her leg 180 degrees so that the bottom of her foot faces the ceiling.

O'Shea was diagnosed with Ewing's sarcoma, a rare form of bone cancer, in 2010, and had to get an internal hemipelvectomy in 2011. In short, doctors had to remove the right side of her pelvis and didn't replace it with anything. The 28-year-old Torontonian had to go through months of physio just to do basic tasks like climbing the stairs without crutches or walking. But about a year ago, O'Shea and a co-worker discovered that the surgery gave her a weird ability.

"I slowly lifted it up and I freaked out and he freaked out and we were at work so a co-worker comes by to see what's going on and they freaked out," she told the Sydney Morning Herald.

O'Shea says that turning her leg like that doesn't actually hurt and she doesn't even feel much stretching. "My mom was very adamant that she didn’t want me to do it. She was very worried that I was ruining the procedure," O'Shea told the Huffington Post Canada over the phone.
