A Day to Inspire 2015 with Tony Christiansen

Info

Tony Christiansen, was special guest at a function, A DAY TO INSPIRE, held at the Orakei Bay Convention Centre on Monday 5th October.

Tony has no legs , a result of a train accident at the age of 9. Guests were totally inspired as he shared his remarkable experiences  and his achievements in life. He encouraged his audience to set their own challenges, rather than accept the limitations imposed by their own attitudes and other people’s perceptions.

A very powerful presentation. Thank you Tony.

“Thank you for the lovely day I had out Viv.  I asked  God to send me angels in disguise today and I realized  that my prayer was answered. I sit at home with tears of joy because I have a new lease on life. That I CAN do anything. I wasnt supposed to see xmas, New Years and my 30th was a definite no. Well last year my family and I spent what was supposed to be my last xmas this year my last New Year and the 20th of this month will be my 30th. Sometimes people who are well dont realize that its not the disease that kills you or the pain? Its the mere sitting on death row WAITING to die that pains me the most. Sure I physically suffer swollen body, terrible pain, immobility and the rest but the what hurts the most is the sadness and grief that I don’t care about living in this body of mine. Today  Viv you helped me change that by inviting me.  I thank you for allowing me to live with peace Xxx” - Andrew, Patient Mercy Hospice, Auckland
