~I Got Mad!~

I watched a news story on TV last nite that made me so mad,

that its all ive thought about today.. I watched a man.. a DAK..

that had special prosthetics.. he was in the OLYMPICS...and they

took away his 5..as in FIVE gold medals he won running.. He had

special legs made..they say gave him an unfair advantage over

the other runners.. and NOW he would have to compete in the

para Olympics.. I got SO MAD.. why did they NOT stop him from

entering the very first time then? they saw he was an amputee..

they let him in.. They Let him win 5 GOLD medals..THEN this man

is NOW not permitted to keep them? I am outraged at this.. I

think this is awful.. they let a woman swimmer compete.. she was

a BK...(below knee) ...

The OLYMPIC people are unfair.. I don't think this is right at all..

Because he has prosthetics.. they say he is better because he doesn't

use as much air when he runs.. so there fore he has an advantage..

Well I say the man perhaps is better prepared for competition then

perhaps.. better able to control him self.. why does it have to be from

the special prosthetics he has? I think it is SO very unfair..that they

have done this to him..they are discriminating against him suddenly..

All these races hes won..the other competitors are complaining

because they are losing and thus blaming it on his special legs.. I

think that is an excuse to get him out of the running so THEY can win

those medals.. To give a person 5 GOLD medals..then to TAKE them

BACK? how cruel.. like he didn't deserve them. he won... he earned

them.. and to say being a dak gives him special advantage I don't

agree at all.. I wish there was something I could do to help this guy..

I sure would this is so unfair to him..Then I hope the woman swimmer

that they have allowed to compete is taken out too..Which she probly

wont because she didn't use a prosthetic..I wonder if she had a special

foot made like a flipper would they disqualify her as well and take her

medals if she won them? unfair.. They should NEVer have let the man

have even run that first race.. I get so upset over injustice done to us

and the lame excuses they give to Justify it.. I hope he gets them good..

I wish I could help him.. Im going to write to the Olypmics committee and

give them my 2 cents too.. I hope every one does. this isnt fair..I HOPE

he has a good lawyer..

I feel better today and havent done anything but just sit and watch it snow..

by late this after noon the sun did come out and tomorrow is sposta be

nice.. I hope so..Chris the lunch girl.. its her birthday and she and a friend

are going shopping in Shipshewanna.. shes 45 she said..and doesn't look

over 30.. I never would have believed shes 45.. sweet kid.. .. I hope she

has a great day tomorrow.. The roads are clear but you can see we got

snow.. I havent been eating too well the past few days and I still don't

have an appetite but I have some of those good crackers..and a cuppa

tea.. and Im headed across this carpet. SLOWLY..and this GORGEOUS

WEEBLE is going to bed.. Thanks for the loving concern.. "Nitey Nite"

Y'all have a good one now, Y'hear? love ya, and thanks.. :-)

ALways, Lois ****
