Sy is die enigste persoon in die land met haar spesifieke gewas \u2013 iets wat haar van jongs af van die middel af verlam gelaat het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maar in plaas daarvan dat dit haar permanent onderkry, gebruik Celise Rix (18) di\u00e9 diagnose as motivering vir \u2019n lewe van een prestasie n\u00e1 die ander. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Di\u00e9 oud-leerder van die Ho\u00ebrskool Bellville is verlede week op \u2019n seremonie vir toppresteerders deur Debbie Sch\u00e4fer, die LUR vir onderwys, met \u2019n spesiale merieteprys vereer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDit is \u2019n baie groot eer,\u201d s\u00ea Celise. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk\u2019s baie dankbaar vir my skool en trots op hulle. Ek is baie dankbaar vir dit wat hulle vir my moontlik gemaak het.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Di\u00e9 beskeie student het nie net ses onderskeidings en \u2019n gemiddelde van 86,7% behaal nie, maar ook \u2019n reeks ander pryse by haar skool losgeslaan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sy was onder meer telke male die toppresteerder in verskillende vakke, was vir vier jaar in die skoolkoerant se redaksie, hoof van die ATKV-tak in die skool en lid van die koor, en het sedert gr. 10 in die leerlingraad gedien.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Celise, wat in 2003 in Constantiaberg gebore is, het normaal ontwikkel, maar van vroeg af met ongemak gesukkel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Op 28 maande is \u2019n gewas op haar spinale koord met behulp van \u2019n MRI-skandering bespeur. Die seldsame gewas kan nie geopereer word nie omdat dit nie van haar senuwees onderskei kan word nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die onsekerheid n\u00e1 haar diagnose was moeilik, s\u00ea haar ma, Ghita. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOns het gewonder \u2013 sal sy kan skoolgaan; sal sy haar eie ideale en drome kan bereik? Maar een ding wat ons nog altyd ges\u00ea het, is dat ons alles gaan probeer om vir haar die beste lewe moontlik te gee.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Daar was oor die jare maar baie emosies en ervarings, s\u00ea sy, en sy het konstante uitdagings. Celise word dikwels moeg en baie instansies is nie ingerig vir mense met gestremdhede nie. Selfs die sypaadjies is moeilik om op te ry omdat lamppale en asblikke dikwels in die middel daarvan staan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cCelise moes drie keer in haar lewe leer loop \u2013 op elf maande; n\u00e1 die eerste spinale chirurgie asook weer op vierjarige ouderdom, aangesien haar ewewig telkens deur die operasie versteur is. Sy het egter net n\u00e1 haar vyfde verjaarsdag ophou loop weens die druk wat die gewas op haar spinale koord plaas,\u201d lui \u2019n motivering wat die Ho\u00ebrskool Bellville by die departement vir haar prys ingedien het.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sy gebruik sedert vyfjarige ouderdom \u2019n rolstoel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ghita s\u00ea sy en haar man, Igor, het nooit getwyfel of Celise in die lewe goed sou vaar nie. \u201cOns is eintlik net oorweldig en dankbaar. Ons is natuurlik ongelooflik trots op haar, maar sy het nog altyd baie dissipline, selfvertroue en baie motivering gehad.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Celise, wat die skool se kunsprys ontvang het, het \u2019n groot gawe om die klein dinge in die lewe raak te sien, s\u00ea beide die skool en haar ma. \u201cDit kon baie anders gewees het,\u201d s\u00ea Ghita. \u201cSy is innerlik baie volwasse.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die skool s\u00ea weer Celise is \u2019n inspirasie vir ander. \u201cHaar vriendelikheid, omgee vir ander, deursettingsvermo\u00eb, toegewydheid en betrokkenheid by die skool maak haar \u2019n uitsonderlike leerder.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ghita s\u00ea Celise was nog altyd in \u201congelooflike\u201d skole wat baie tegemoetkomend was. Aanvanklik het veral baie laerskole ges\u00ea hulle kon haar nie akkommodeer nie, maar diegene wat kon, was fantasties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sy was tot gr.6 in Melkbosstrand Privaatskool en nadat haar ouers getrek het, was sy in gr.\u20097 in die Laerskool Mikro in Kuilsrivier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Daarna het hulle weer na Chrismar in Bellville getrek en woon langs die ho\u00ebrskool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201c(Ho\u00ebrskool) Bellville het nie \u2019n oomblik gehuiwer nie,\u201d s\u00ea sy oor daardie oproep oor of hulle Celise sou aanvaar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cMeneer du Plessis (die skoolhoof) het net ges\u00ea dit is wonderlik om haar te h\u00ea.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hulle het nog twee kinders, Anika en Dante, wat ook tans in die ho\u00ebrskool is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Celise se raad aan ander is om nie toe te laat dat iets hulle onderkry nie, al is dit soms moeilik om positief te bly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHoe meer jy probeer, hoe meer gaan jy regkry.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
