Rachael Watson OAM won a Bronze Medal!!

#sadamikonchi Hearty congrats, Rachael Watson OAM won a Bronze Medal in the S3 100m Freestyle!!  Me, too, have started #swimming in the part of rehab. Today, I swim 1 km. Her say has inspired me. "Never give up," "if you put your heart into it and you just try and try and try, you can achieve whatever you want in your life.” I believe in possibility and will walk on my own feet till the end of my life! *S3, = para-swimming classifications, category based on the disability level. People in this class have some arm and hand function, but no use of their trunk and legs. They have severe disabilities in all their limbs. #sydney #australia #caricature #fundrawing #paralympic #2024 #rachaelwatson #watercolour

心から 銅メダル おめでとう, レイチェル ワトソン!! S3, 100m クロール. 私も 彼女と同じく リハビリの一環として 水泳を始め 今では1km こなします. 海で泳ぐのが 一番 好きで, 波に揺られ 潮風と潮騒を聞くのが 大好きです. 彼女の言葉, "絶対に諦めない," "自分が心を 打ち込んで, 頑張り抜いて, それでも続けて まだ 努力するなら, きっとあなたは 自分の人生で何でもできるはずよ," は大好きですし 私もそう信じています. これを 読んでいるあなたに送ります. なお "S3"というのは #パラリンピック の #水泳 の カテゴリーで 障害の程度に応じて 設定されています.

    1. Oh, sweet Rhonda, than you!! Yes, we're getting into the spring while you're in a fall. Just my physiotherapist suggested beneficial movements in water. I'll work on it!! You, too, take care. Love and smile, Sadami
