I saw her training at our pool on Portland. Seems odd she is wearing a dress & not a wetsuit! Brave lady.

I don't quite understand why she's still in a wheelchair?

It's got propellors on it so she can move through the water.

Indeed, I don't like it down there, find it scary.

I was at the pool one day when she was getting ready to go in. Quite amazing.
