This blog reflects my thoughts and insights
into my multifaceted life-- systems advocate for people with disabilities, parent, adjunct college instructor, wife and doctoral candidate.
Oscar Pistorius has been disqualified for Olympic competition due to his prosthetic limbs. These have been identified as giving him an unfair advantage over those without prosthetics.
My friend showed me a cover with a kid, Rudy Garcia, I believe is his name. Born deformed, he told doctors at age five to cut off his legs so he could walk. He has now competed in many compettitions. I believe he may have even competed in an Ironman triathlon.
