That's so important, especially here in China. They are learning that people with a disability have an important role to play in society." - Esther Vergeer. Immensely inspiring story for human beings across the Planet. Best wishes to the Dutch tennis star.Dr. Cajetan Coelho Fri 19 Sep 2008 10:12:28 GMT+1 http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/olympics/2008/09/vergeers_poetry_in_motion.html?page=12#comment3 Heartwarming. These back-stories have kept us enthralled. Thank you, Nick. Clare Balding and Eddie Butler in particular have excelled in making us see the ability and not the disability of individuals, although it is almost unfair to single out any of the commentary team for particular praise. Esther Vermeer epitomises the Paralympian spirit - wonder what might be, yes, but celebrate the best of what is!
