Devonport’s Georgie Gott lost the use of her legs just before her second birthday.
As a teen she set her sights on becoming an occupational therapist like those who helped her through the surgeries, wheelchairs and challenges of her youth.
In March, the newbie wheelchair basketballer walked the iconic Three Capes track, battling blistered hands to complete the 48km on her crutches.

Good on you, Georgie!

Way to go!. Congrats Georgie. As I say to my daughter, never let the disability define whom you are, meaning she can do anything every one else can, just she needs to work a bit harder.
