Inspired by a Para-Olympian

 

This 56 year old is in Tokyo completing in Archery.
I have now read 3 articles about her and she is such an inspiration. 
Her name is Lia Coryell and despite having a terrible childhood and being diagnosed with progressive Multiple Sclerosis in her mid 20s she has done such amazing things and inspired so many people along the way.

The top picture shows Lia with a little girl who was taught to do archery using her mouth due to an arm injury.  The bottom picture shows her with an archery team she helped coach. (I think from UW Lacrosse)
