!!!



It is less than a year since the accident, and mum has tackled the greatest of all physical hurdles: She waterskied! And looked better than ever.

This is truly a defining moment for our family. In the weeks following the accident, we were not sure how far she could possibly recover from such serious injuries. And following that, as the prognoses from doctors and physiotherapists were better and better, there was still a lagging fear among all of us that she might never have the strength to be as active as she had in the past – and worst of all, that she may never waterski again.

Mum’s beautiful ski last Saturday is a testament of how far she has come, and the many obstacles she has risen above.
