Allison Jones (born in Amarillo Texas on May 12 1984) is a Paralympic skier and cyclist for the United States of America. She was born with the birth defect proximal femoral focal deficiency (PFFD) which left her without a right femur. She underwent surgery at age 7 months to amputate her right foot allowing her to more easily wear a prosthetic leg. She received her first prosthetic leg at 9 months of age.
