Dignified start to the day by showering on the floor as the disability bathroom at the gym had no seat. #accessibilityfail

you have a better chance of surviving being the defence against the dark arts teacher at Hogwarts than at swimming CEO.
Also, I hear Paralympic swimming is popular too #andparalympics

Eugenie Buckley will leave the organisation following a tumultuous period, behind the scenes, for Australia’s most popular Olympic sport. #Echobox=1681457737-1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">theage.com.au/sport/swimming…

So this is the second time my prosthetics broken this year while waiting for NDIS to approve funding for a new one. Image is of the tear in the socket from January this year

I was mid stride when the lock that holds the prosthetic to my leg failed. My prosthetic came off and I then fell landing on my amputated leg, infront of a school i was about to present to.
The impact to the cement was not the impact I had hoped to leave students with.

I guess I gave the students a literal example of how you fall down and get back up again.

Brisbane airport. I explain my luggage is 24kg due to the 2 prosthetic legs I have packed Normally this all I need to say and the extra weight is excused. Tonight flying to Adelaide, the staff had me open my bag to prove it.
Who knew fake legs were such a popular excuse! 🦿🤦🏽♀️

Last minute call up- but I'm always more than happy to contribute to the Menstrual Health discussion. One day the diagnosis for endometriosis will be less than the current 7-10year average

WISC22: To round off our "Breast health, pregnancy & return to sport" theme, we hear from two olympians @JanaPittman and @alycewood_ on their experiences returning to sport after pregnancy.
Powerful and differing perspectives, thank you both💪

If you are somewhere and there are no people with a disability, it's not because we don't exist, it's because where you are isn't accessible #wisc22

@SallyCDillon @speedo Australian Para Swimmer. It was great to see NZ Swimmer Sophie Pascoe sponsored. I will note Tommy Gallagher is now listed on the Team Speedo Page, although it says the para swimmer is aiming for the "Olympics" we are not Olympians. Room for improvement.

““No para swimmer is sponsored by Speedo,” says Paralympian @MonMurphy287. Come on @speedo — show some sporting spirit and support equity in sport. bit.ly/3vD04LR #DiversityAndInclusion

Honoured to be sworn in as your Federal Minister for Aged Care and Sport today.
We’ve had 19 reports to fix aged care since 1997, and not enough action.
Australians have a lot to look forward to, especially the 2032 Olympics.
I will not to waste a day in government.

Considering the pain medication I'm on post operation. Im proud.

No faster way for me to question a medical professional than have them ask if I can walk to the bed.
I've just had a knee reconstruction and ankle surgery on one leg, and don't even have a second. Answers no.

Daniel Radcliffe's performance of 'she'll be coming round the mountian' in S3 of Miracle Workers had to be the greatest thing I've ever watched. What a talent
