A TRANSGENDER WOMAN born with half a body continues to defy her critics by finding love. Piyah Martell was born with a rare congenital birth defect known as sacral agenesis. The 27-year-old uses a skateboard as a mobility aide and spends her time raising awareness of issues around disability in the LGBTQ+ community. Originally born as Pedro Martell, Piyah began her transition to a woman in her late teens, initially facing angry criticism from her father. But Piyah is now in a happy relationship with her partner, Andrew Manuel who says he faces daily judgement around their relationship but that she brightens up every day.
