Zakia Khudadadi from the refugee Paralympic team winning bronze had me in floods.

Had to train in secret and got to the Olympics. What a woman.

What a woman!

I applaud her and women like her while deploring the wretched circumstances that make her actions and achievements so remarkable. If that makes sense.

I've never heard of her, I've no idea what sport she's won the medal in but, watching that, I'm feeling a little tearful myself.

Don't worry OP I'm quickly going to educate myself. Thank you 😊

Taekwondo. Korean martial art. Very tough!

It makes perfect sense. Seeing how amazing she is and wishing she didn't have to be quite so amazing.
