    Annie Carey competing in the long jump

    Annie's CCAFO story

    As a young girl, Annie Carey dreamed of being a competitive para-athlete who wins races and, ultimately, achieves Paralympic gold. Now a teenager, she inspires the world with her can-do attitude, perseverance and ability to turn what may seem a limitation into an opportunity for personal growth. To support her big dreams, no ordinary ankle foot orthosis (AFO) would be sufficient. She was fitted with the only AFO that would give her the freedom of movement she needs on track toward the 2021 Paralympic Games: a custom carbon fiber AFO from Ottobock.
