A teenager who was diagnosed with cancer as a toddler and has one leg 3cm shorter than the other will be captain of Scotland's team at an international cheer competition. Summer Wroniecki, 14, was diagnosed with cancer a day after her third birthday.
She started Highland Dancing aged two-and-a-half, and proved to be a quick learner. After undergoing gruelling cancer treatment, Summer started learning cheer routines aged four years old.
Summer is still having physio after having several operations as part of her treatment for rhabdomyosarcoma, a cancer which started in her muscles. She had her first hip operation on April 3 2015 but suffered a further setback a couple of months later when an inflatable slide she was playing on blew over and she broke her leg.
Another piece of metal was inserted in her leg in June 2015, but despite the injury Summer was determined to be well enough to go on a family holiday to Lanzarote in July. It took six months before she could take part in cheerleading again but she went to training to feel like part of the team.
Summer will compete in Florida in April in the International Cheer Union hip hop category, and was thrilled to be given the backing of her peer group who chose her as the captain. The dance style is derived from acrobatic moves, including handsprings and flips.
Summer has a pair of adapted Converse trainers with a wedge heel to make it easier to take part, and is hoping to find sponsors for her trip. Proud parents Karen and Chris said they were delighted she had come so far.
Summer said: "I've seen Bring It On but I don't watch a lot of music videos. I had cancer treatment for six months but had to get checked over a five year period.
"I do dance in Converse shoes with a heel, I wear
