How many athletes are there in the Paralympic Games? There are 4403, in 22 sports and 537 events, over 12 days. There are several sports for competitors in wheelchairs - basketball, fencing, rugby and tennis. In fencing, the wheelchairs are attached to frames in the floor - only the upper body can move. In contrast, wheelchair rugby moves very fast and is high energy. Once upon a time it was called "murder ball"! Every disabled man or woman is different. They do not all need a wheelchair for their sport. There is sitting volleyball, with a low net.

Ma hedna ow menya moy liednow ha dilhas rag an jynn-gòlhy avorow. There is no limit to bad luck, so it seems. Am I pessimistic? 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.
