I called XIA Bo-Yu, 55 years old, work in the Chinese Mountaineering Association. I have a Chinese team of athletes, climbing Everest in 1975 when it encountered strong winds hampered, as a surprise team in the 8,600 meters, I stayed for two days, three nights, finally forced to viewers. Next withdraw the 7,600 meters that night, Sleeping bags to be seen, I lost a teammate sleeping bags, which drop a cold feet. Deng Everest in this campaign, I won the third. Later, I frostbite parts of the blood circulation is poor, long-term healing of the wound, and in carcinogenesis, and done a number of surgery and radiotherapy.
I like mountaineering, love mountaineering career. Despite the loss of his legs, I still wish for the country's contribution to mountaineering career to do something. 30 years, I though injury disabled, and created cancerous, but all I will not beat. I always had a vision in mind, that is, even without legs, I also received Everest again! Over the years, the ideals to heart, I have been training hard in physical, and the disabled and the indomitable fight against the disease. For a long time, every day I get up 5:00, one hour of muscle strength and endurance training, and then riding a bicycle to work hours. Throughout the year, I uphold the daily bath. Now, my body all indicators are normal, cancer has been under control. The disabled in the domestic and international games, I won many medals.
Today, the disabled climbers abroad is very common. Disabled in mountaineering activities, a national marks of civilization and development of the community of people with love, support and understanding, also showed people with self-improvement, self-esteem and self-confidence. In May this year, is also New Zealanders lost his legs Mark Inglis successfully boarded Everest, the news for me is a tremendous encouragement and incentive.
Currently, the country has not carried out activities of the disabled climbers. I want to go mountain climbing, is also willing to open up people with the activities of a mountain road, looking for some laws, accumulated experience. I fervently hope to find the cause of concern to people with disabilities and is willing to love people with the cause of cooperation and sponsorship partners, in support. Such support would create a precedent of the disabled climbers to the cause of China's disabled climbers on the right track, so that I can finally realize their ideals. If possible, I hope to climb in the next year in Xinjiang, elevation 7,546 meters Muztag Ata peak, and then under specific circumstances in the 08 to 09 or climb Everest. Friends fervently hope the community will lend a helping hand!
