Eliza Ault-Connell (née Stankovic; born 19 September 1981) is an Australian wheelchair racer, who competed at Paralympic and Olympic Games. She survived meningococcal disease and plays a major role in improving the Australian community's awareness of the disease. ==Personal== She was born in Sydney, New South Wales on 19 September 1981. In 1997, at the age of 16, she nearly died from meningococcal disease. She had both her legs amputated above the knees two days after contracting the disease. She said ''Amputation wasn't a decision I had to make: I was in a coma at the time. Mum and Dad were told that's what had to be done to save my life, so in that sense there was no choice.'' Later she had to make the decision to have most of the fingers on each hand removed. She was in hospital for six months. In 1998, she acquired prosthetic legs. 〔 She is married to Australian Paralympic athlete Kieran Ault-Connell and they have two daughters and a son. She is involved in promoting the awareness of meningococcal disease in the Australian community. 〔
