A ,French, tourist lady with disability has broken
a record of being the first disable woman to clinch the top of the free standing
tallest Mountain in Africa, Mount Kilimanjaro found in Tanzania.
Speaking with scribes few moment after descending down
Chrystel Alquivier said she was overwhelmed
with joy to fulfill her dream to reach the summit of Mt Kilimanjaro as her
campaign to people with disability to believe that they are able to achieve anything they
wish in life despite of their status.
“Just before we got to the top, I wanted to shout
and scream with excitement, but once we’d got there, it felt really strange.
She said that she got paralyzed when she was twenty
two years old and at that time she had
only two choices to make one being to commit suicide and die or accepting the
disability and continue with life, she chose to live to date.
She told reporters that people with disability can
do better than those without if they have confidence skills and courage to
pursue what they dream for life.
