Paralyze Me

KUER 90.1 | By Doug Fabrizio
Published October 29, 2013 at 12:42 AM MDT

Tuesday, we're telling the story of Chloe Jennings-White. Chloe has a PhD in Chemistry, she holds several patents and she lives an active life. She is also in a wheelchair, but she's there because it's where she feels most comfortable. Chloe has a rare condition called Body Integrity Identity Disorder, which means she's always felt that her left leg wasn't really meant to be part of her. We'll premiere a new VideoWest documentary about Chloe Jennings-White and talk to her – along with Columbia University psychiatrist Michael First – about BIID.
