There are times in the swimming race that can be challenging for Jordan, but she imagines one of her favorite songs playing in her head to help push herself through.

While her childhood was filled with transfusions, surgeries and chemotherapy treatments, she maintains a positive attitude. This Special Olympian knows what it takes to win in the pool and in life.
