Remember that "basketball girl" 20 years ago? How is she now?

When God gave us suffering and we had to face it, many people were depressed and never recovered, which made their lives dull. Some people head on, with an inherent perseverance, even if they are physically disabled, they can live a different life. At the age of four, Qian Hongyan, a "basketball girl" in Yunnan, was paraplegic due to a car accident. Since then, she has put her body in half a basketball.

Now more than 20 years have passed, this basketball girl has walked out of her different life, joined the "South of the Cloud" swimming club and won many awards.

First of all, a sudden car accident made four-year-old Qian Hongyan lose her legs, so if she wants to walk, she must live in a basketball. When Xiao Yan Hongyan was four years old, she experienced a car accident. At that time, the car accident was so tragic that she was paraplegic. From then on, the young children who lost their legs lost their smiles and shut themselves in the house under the double blow of psychology and physiology. But after half a year, the little girl's heart slowly came to life and she wanted to see the outside world.

Qian Hongyan's grandfather helped his granddaughter think of a way to cut the basketball in the middle, put some cotton wool on it, and then make two wooden handles. Then Qian Hongyan started her walking career with these two handles and became a "basketball girl" in everyone's eyes.

With half a basketball, Qian Hongyan walked into the school. With this half a basketball, she walked into the swimming training ground. With this perseverance, she passed the hard swimming training. Qian Hongyan won prizes in the Yunnan Disabled Games and the National Disabled Swimming Championships, which made her life very exciting.

Second, although it is unfortunate to lose her legs, her will is stronger because of the blow. This girl named Qian Hongyan has experienced inner strength that ordinary people can't reach. As we all know, physical training is very hard. If you want to participate in professional competitions, you need to go through long-term unremitting training, not only physically, but also psychologically, because you don't know whether you can win the championship or whether your physical condition can meet the standard of winning the championship.

In 2007, coach Zhang Honghu initiated the establishment of the swimming club for the disabled. This youth swimming club named "South of the Cloud" is the hope of Qian Hongyan. Under the training of coach Zhang Honghu, Qian Hongyan paid more sweat than ordinary people and took to the swimming playground.

Qian Hongyan was paraplegic after the car accident, which was equivalent to having no legs. In the swimming pool, it is equivalent to a ship without a rudder. The coach once worried that Qian Hongyan's physical condition could not find the right direction in the water, but I didn't expect that after starting training, Qian Hongyan was very hard-working and savvy, and she also had a high talent for swimming. According to the coach's words, Qian Hongyan's buoyancy in the water is particularly good, and its adhesion is also very good, so it has inherent advantages. Coupled with persistent training in the later period, Qian Hongyan's success on the field is so natural.

Qian Hongyan is very optimistic. She showed positive energy to everyone. Now Qian Hongyan has achieved good results in swimming competitions for the disabled. After retiring, she won't worry about nowhere to go because she doesn't have a skill. With her excellent conditions, she can become a swimming coach for the disabled.

Third, different tragic experiences, but also a strong heart, and made outstanding achievements in specific fields. It is admirable to see that Qian Hongyan, a "basketball girl", can still achieve such excellent results despite losing her legs and causing serious physical disability. Under this gentle smiling face, we can feel her inner strength, which makes us have to reflect. Why can't we live and work in a healthy body every day with such efforts and motivation?

Qian Hongyan, a "basketball girl", reminds me of another woman who lives a different life because of her disabled legs. It was Liao Zhi who lost her legs in the Wenchuan earthquake. This woman's story is also very inspirational. Although she lost her legs, she continued her dancing career. Her dance "Encouragement" shocked many people.

Liao Zhi continued his career after installing artificial limbs, and founded "Morning Star House" with her husband to help more people who need artificial limbs. "Basketball Girls" Qian Hongyan and Liao Zhi, although they are both weak little women, we feel different strengths in them.

We believe that even Qian Hongyan, a physically disabled former "basketball girl", can have a wonderful time in high live. Even after retiring, she will have her own career and influence people around her with her optimistic and positive heart.
