Read newspapers-thesundaytimes

when i was watching Prince and Princess 2.

Flip the page.

i stopped watching tv.

rather i read the headline-

"How can I give up a fight? It's not my way"

It was a news from my idol-

Dr William Tan.

I rly feel that he is one of the strongest man on earth.

how can a person be so brave?

I rmb when i was in phs.

he came to our sch and talk to us.

telling us,his story since young.

i was so touched.

and nearly cried.

At the age of two,he had to sit on wheelchair

due to his illness-Polioto.

He did not give up but he became even stronger.

he studied hard manage to enter RI.

teachers in RI are very helpful.

managed to pull him through.

Then he became both a medical doctor and neuroscientist.

even though,he is disabled but he became a wheelchair marathoner who set many world records.

In 2007.

He completed 7 Marathon in 7 continents in just 27days.

i doubt many can do that.

esp in Antarctica which is so cold!

He did so many things which ppl admire and respect him

but why at the age of 52.

he is diagnosed with chronice lymphocytic leukaemia??

I rly don understand why?

anyway i read finish the whole page.

without skipping any words.

i rmb a few days back.

when my eng teacher asked this qn...

"who is your idol??"

My answer was Dr William Tan.

now still he is someone whom i admire most.

**Hope that he is brave enough to endure

and continue to inspire ppl around you:)
