On August 25, 2007, Tequila Mockingbird, a veteran Chicago roller derby player for The Fury, fell and seriously injured her spinal cord during a bout. Since that day, Tequila has been in hospitals, relearning old skills : how to hold a pen, feed herself, and operate her wheelchair. She has been a roller girl since 2004 and is known for always hustling and pushing herself, being a role model for all skaters, and helping her team win 2 championships. The injury has limited most of the movement in her limbs, restricting her freedom, independence, and most importantly, her ability to work. Tequila is a fighter who wants to make a full recovery; however, she needs our support to make it possible.
