Life and career
Purdy was born in Las Vegas in 1979. When she was 19 years old, she contracted Neisseria meningitidis, a form of bacterial meningitis.[1] The disease affected Purdy's circulatory system when the infection led to septic shock;[2] both of her legs had to be amputated below the knee, she lost both kidneys along with hearing in her left ear,[3] and her spleen had to be removed.[1] Doctors gave Purdy a 2% chance of survival.[4
