I have had so much public support.
Every day women and children are killed and maimed by landmines long after wars are over.
I just have friends that don't sell their pictures to newspapers.
It took one human error to take my leg and one human error to take my mother's.
My body shape was made to get into the perfect aerodynamic position.
I was competing in an IPC World Cup race, but the finish area was short and I came across the line with my head down and went straight through the fence. It was only because the Italian team doctor leapt out to grab me that I didn't smash through the cafรฉ window.
