Going out there in the water, it feels as if there's nothing wrong with me.
I just want to be myself and go for my own dreams and goals.
When you are racing in an able-bodied competition, you're all equal and you go out there and try your best, and that's what counts.
Once your dream is fulfilled you face another one.
I don't think of myself as being disabled, or able-bodied.
I am always late because people stop me for autographs and say hi.
