Melissa Schroeder is the current Mission Nebraska, along with other pageants that she has won along the way. She suffers from multiple chronic illnesses, but before she knew she had any of these illnesses, she was already advocating for kids with disabilities. They helped prepare her for what was to come down the road. She's a very unselfish person, she takes a part of the episode just to talk about people with disabilities and how others perceive us in what we can do, but the reality is we can do so much more. The main condition that she suffers from is called Ehlers danlos syndrome, why does is it messes with her flexibility and her blood pressure and it causes constant dislocations at Random times. Many people doubted that she was even telling the truth about her condition, but of course she knew different, and once she came to terms with what she had, and found others like her, she knew she had to continue to keep fighting. She's very inspired because she indoors so much, and still wants to help others, which is something that is lacking in this world.
