Coan was diagnosed with Osteogenesis Imperfecta also known as \u201cbrittle bone disease\u201d. From her experiences, she developed an organization called \u201cKenzie Kares\u201d that provides things like personal visits and crafting supplies to patients. By doing so, kids just like McKenzie know they are not alone in their fight.<\/p>\n<p>In this episode, McKenzie shares how discovering the Paralympics led her to the London and Rio Paralympic Games. She even shows some of her golden hardware from Rio in 2016.\u00a0 In addition, there are some interesting fun facts that separate these medals from their Olympic counterparts.<\/p>\n<div class=\"oembed-wrap\">\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/tv\/CE7Csa3JgLC\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;
