I just want to be myself and go for my own dreams and goals.

It's been a dream for me since I was six years old to go to the Olympic Games and to finally have that dream realised is something massive for me.

It doesn't matter if you look different. You're still the same as everybody else because you have the same dream.

I have always had a dream to take part in an Olympic Games, and losing my leg didn't change anything.

I go out there and train as hard as anybody else.

I am always late because people stop me for autographs and say hi.

Going out there in the water, it feels as if there's nothing wrong with me.
