To prove to herself just how unlimited her possibilities are, Ennis set a goal: to become the first amputee to complete the Seven Summits—the highest mountain on each of the seven continents. But Ennis' climbing journey isn't just about the mountains.On each climb, she raises money in support of a different nonprofit organization. “I realized that it was a pretty unique plat­form ...Whether it's the younger generation, men, women or wounded veterans, they can look to me in a different way，” Ennis told Connecting Vets.“It's just the highlight of everything I always wanted to do.” Ennis had climbed up five of the seven mountains.She'd been on Mount Qomolangma for more than a month, adapting to the altitude and planning routes, and her team planned to reach the summit(登顶) on May 15, 2019.It was a climb she had been preparing for three years, including a trip in 2017. “Mount Qomolangma is the most important part of everything I have trained for，” Ennis told Pensacola News Journal.“Every mountain teaches me something different.Now I have to use all of those skill sets to be able to deal with Mount Qomolangma.Should I reach the summit, history will be made as the first woman above­knee amputee to do so.Each individual, especially those with disabilities, should be able to determine what they're able to do.” Ennis shares detailed updates on her blog, and posted after the attempt to reach the summit.
