Her mother was an Australian nurse who knew his work because all measures should have during her pregnancy and took special care of it. However, the baby was born with agenesis and tetra, amelia syndrome, which is characterized by the lack of limbs. For the same reason, Nick was born without arms or legs. He only has a small training or meromelia lower left side. At first, his parents were devastated by their disability status , but grateful that at least Nick had health.Three sonograms failed to reveal complications.

Nick constantly wondered why he was different than all the other kids. He questioned the purpose of his life, or if he even had a purpose.
During his school age, Nick and his family ( including his younger brother and sister ) moved to Melbourne  to find better opportunities.

Later, the Australian state laws changed , and Vujicic became one of the first disabled students to be integrated into schools regulares. For Being bothered by their peers at school because of their disability, Vujicic had episodes of depression during their childhood, and when he was about eight years old, contemplated suicide .

After praying numerous times for him to grow arms and legs,  he was grateful for his life, and eventually realized that he was only in the kind of challenges we had to face , and that his life could inspire others.
