Last fall, 21-year-old Mia Welch took the phrase "dancing your heart out" to a whole new level. It all began in summer 2010, when she was attending Mesa Community College and dancing 14 hours a week with the school's summer dance company.
"During our summer showcase, every time I did a dance, I was exhausted, which wasn't normal for me," said Mia. "I had to walk around with my arms above my head, taking deep breaths. I was having a lot of pain in the right side of my ribs and it wasn't going away. I figured it was just y nhcrqn opmd."
