Those of us who are able-bodied tend to take many of our abilities for granted. Especially those of us who are active and love to play sports, we wouldn't be able to fathom a life without the use of our hands, feet, arms, and legs. Even everyday tasks would become a burden. How would one hold a toothbrush, or enjoy a nice stroll on the beach, for example?
But a few were born without the capacity to enjoy these simple activities — these individuals have been confined to wheelchairs, crutches, and other aids their whole lives. Many dream of one day climbing a mountain or going for a swim, for example.
DeAsia Romes, a student at the University of Arkansas, always dreamed of reaching the top of Pinnacle Mountain in Little Rock, AR. But, as she's afflicted with a muscle condition from a result of cerebral palsy, she hasn't been able to do so.
Until now, thanks to an unlikely group of heroes!
Six boys from the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity chapter at the school took it upon themselves to carry her on their backs, all the way to the top.
Thanks to them, she was able to reach new heights — literally and figuratively!
Please SHARE if you love the amazing gift these boys were able to give this student!

DeAsia Romes is a student at the University of Arkansas. She has limited mobility, and uses a wheelchair, due to cerebral palsy. But this hasn't stopped her from hoping that one day, she would be able to reach to top of the Pinnacle Mountain in Little Rock.
Six frat boys from the Phi Gamma Delta chapter at the university offered to help her fulfill this wish.
The young men arranged to take turns giving her piggyback rides up the mountain until they reached the top!
Once at the summit, the group took in the beautiful view.
DeAsia described the experience on her Facebook page, Adventures of Baby D: "Just to be so high up in the air, it's almost kind of surreal. From that point of view at the top you just feel like you can do anything."
But one mountain was not enough: the group is planning their next excursion up yet another one.
Please SHARE to thank these young men for making one woman's wish come true!
