I stand in awe of most Olympic athletes and most particularly gymnasts. But Suni Lee's (USA) back story of a rare kidney disease just a year or so ago is amazing. My wife suffers with PKD and has had a kidney transplant. I know what kind of suffering it can bring! She is doing well now, but nothing like being able to qualify for an Olympic team. For Lee to be able to come back from that and be here in Paris is nothing short of amazing. Then to nail her Uneven Bars routine so flawlessly, wow! Just in case you weren't impressed enough, she had to step in and do the Floor Exercise tonight for a sick teammate. After this routine, Team USA knew that they were almost guaranteed a gold medal in Paris.
This is a small 4x6 inch original watercolor painting that is available through my website at greigleach.com or you can simply follow the direct link at the end of the post to purchase the painting above. Since it is an original work of art, it is a first come first served reality. The work sells for $95 USD including shipping, but, yes, international shipping is both available and extra.
