Wheelchair rugby is a mixed gender sport, but this year there are only four women in Tokyo. A team has four members. Since Sydney in the year 2000 more than 50 gold medals have been won, but Kylie Grimes is the first woman. The medals are very special, designed and made for disabled people. People with good eyes can see the medals' colours. For visually impaired people there are silicon convex dots on the ribbon and circular indentations on the rim, one for gold, two for silver, and three for bronze. Winners can identify their medals by touch. And written in Braille is "Tokyo 2020".

Mishaps come in threes, but I have had more than three disasters already. What is the problem today? Our daughter is ill and she can't collect her children. I must entertain them. We played hangman many times, and chess and cards. What do sick children like to eat? Perhaps a few grapes. But that was not a very good idea. Eleven o'clock, the lit...

Will I lose my right mind soon? What is next? The first boy was sick again half an hour before midnight, and the second boy was sick twelve hours later. Lots of washing. The washing machine worked non-stop for many hours.
