Belgium at the 2018 Winter Paralympics
Eléonor Sana has been blind since she was born. She started skiing when she was a child. She started competing in ski races three years before the 2018 Games. Her sister is Chloé Sana. She is Eléonor's guide skier. They use a microphone and a headset in their helmets to talk to each other. Eléonor and her older sister won two medals at the 2017 World Championships. One was a silver and the other was a bronze. It costs them a lot of money to participate in ski races. There is not much sponsorship in Belgium. Chloé said this can make it very difficult to compete in races. Before the 2018 Games, Chloé wanted to win a medal. At the same time, she was happy just to be going to Pyeongchang.
