Paralympic inspiration

http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2010/03/2010_winter_paralympics.html
Just flicking through these pics from the parlympics made me think of how aware I am of these competitors and how I have no idea about past competitors and no memories of watching the paralympics in my childhood. My fave would be Adam Hall (NZ bias perhaps) and his Mum and the exchange of love and respect between them.
Hudson has really enjoyed watching the highlights each night and I was captivated. The whole movement is so embracing maybe one day our whole society will get up to speed with it!

I wonder where Hudson could find a place amongst it though, boccia for sure, but since it doesn't include anything that makes him fizz- speed, height or pulling "G's" I'm not sure boccia will make his wheels spin!
