davidwain Is this Jim's wife or what

Oh, wow! She amazing👏

Inspiring!

And it’s not because she’s female, it’s because she has moxie and is a dedicated young lady who obviously will not take no-can-do for an answer. Kudos.

Swimming is a good sport. No, you don't need to be on the swim team. Just get out there and swim.

Very inspiring story, without any doubt. But to be honest.....I admire her perseverance, but she’s not a great swimmer.

Cool. Being in water can be very disorientating for someone who can see. I can’t imagine being able to do it blind.
