Gabby Douglas was born in Virginia. When she was born, her mother almost died. A few days later they realized they didn't really have anything, so they took a road trip to her grandma’s house. Gabby grew up there and her sister taught her gymnastics. She learned all types of skills. One day she got into the Olympics a few years in a row. Later she the well known coach Liang Chow and he started to coach her. He invited her to go back to China with him. She said yes even though she knew she would leave her family. She did well. She improved rapidly but then one day she pulled her hamstring. When she recovered, she went to the olympics. She told her mom she wanted to quit. Her mom told her coach and together they convinced her not to and now she is in the Olympics this year. emaleigh
