Conquering the Impossible; Making the Dream Come True

Mother of two wonderful children, Carol Higgins has conquered more than her fair share of turmoil: violent childhood abuse, crippling cancer, a divorce and the traumatic passing of her beloved sister, Donna, have all challenged this remarkable Yorkshire woman through the depths of her mind to the very core of her body. But Carol has never given up, refusing to live in the shadows of her own life as a victim.

Only 8 months after she had undergone 9 hours of surgery to remove the tumour that threatened her life, Carol's determination compelled her to set off to fulfil a life time dream: Conquering the biggest free-standing mountain in the world, Mount Kilimanjaro.

Told in her own witty, engrossing voice, Carol brings you into the journey she undertook and whisks you through the throng of far away airports and tourist traps, culminating in above-cloud magic of the top of the world.

Re-live Carol's adventure through the video footage she captured on her journey. Look out for the QR codes found throughout the book and use your QR Code reading app to unlock an experience seldom found in other books!
