I was bullied, I was young and I was kept at a distance even when I grew older. But I know that even as I move on in my life, I will face these kinds of challenges. So facing them from at early childhood itself has made me stronger to face bigger challenges in life," she said.She also noted that her parents treated her no different when it came to studies or opportunities." For my parents, I am not special. All three of us are special equally. I am just one among three children. They never told me that I am different. They always said you are just like the other children, I can do anything that the other children can. When my friends were running races, I also wanted to run. My parents used to take me to the school ground and ran with me as they held my hands," she added.Hannah's father, Simon Mathews credited her mother Lija Simon for Hannah's confidence and attitude."When Hannah was a child, she faced bullying in school. Friends kept her out of friendship. Hannah's mother is the main person behind her to pull her up, she supported her all the way. She supported her in such a way that boosted her confidence. All those difficulties made Hannah stronger. Hannah also understood everything pretty well. She accepted the challenges, " said Simon Mathews.The 19-year-old Humanities student became a topper in the category of students with disabilities in the country.
