Amputee Returns to Rock Climbing: Anna's Story

In August 2022, twenty-one-year-old New Zealander Anna Parsons was climbing in America’s Yosemite National Park when she fell 25 metres. The University student broke almost every bone in her body including her neck, spine, pelvis, ribs, and feet. Anna’s left foot was so badly damaged it had to be amputated. She spent six weeks in an American hospital before she could be flown home and transferred to the Burwood Spinal unit in Christchurch. The trauma of this major accident changed her body and her mind. Anna is a mad keen outdoor adventure. She climbs, kayaks, hikes, surfs, mountain bikes and SCUBA dives. Now Anna has had to learn to walk again with a new prosthetic foot; and she has had to learn to slow down. We follow Anna as she leaves the spinal unit and begins the next period of her recovery. Knowing that Anna is desperate to be in the outdoors, her sister organises a kayaking outing. As Anna starts regaining her physicality, there is one big challenge she really wants to take on – getting back to mountain climbing. But how will her body and her mind hold up?
