Personal life When Hendriks was two years old she contracted Meningococcal disease. She survived, but her left lower leg, right hand, and the fingers of her left hand had died. As a result of contracting Meningococcal disease in 2003, the growth plates in her lower right leg were damaged, causing the leg to grow crooked. During an operation in 2015, a nerve was hit, and a result, she could no longer lift her foot. This led to the decision to also amputate her lower right leg in 2018.
