She was born with a rare genetic disorder known as sacral agenesis. She had no feelings in her legs as a child, and her feet were pointing in opposite directions. At two years old, her legs were amputated. Rose married Dave Siggins in 1999 and had two children — Luke and Shelby. A GoFundMe account has been set up for them. You can donate here. Rose said was the first person with sacral agenesis to carry a child nearly a full term.

She was currently filming a documentary called Schlitzie: One of Us, according to IMDB. In addition to American Horror Story, Rose was featured on Born Different: Unbelievable Medical Condition, Extraordinary People and Ripley’s Believe It or Not!
