Inspirational Olympics Torch Carrier

When I read this article in the Metro on the subway today.. I was so touched by this story that I knew I definitely wanted to share it with everyone. Over 12,000 people are selected as torch carriers of the Olympic flame across Canada which mainly consists of community leaders, celebrities, politicians, with a small portion being dedicated to those “chosen for their perseverance in the face of life-threatening adversity”. Greg Shulkin is a great example of someone who has not allowed an unfortunate event in his life that has left him legally blind, unable to walk and dependent on dialysis to see each and every day from living his life. As he puts it, “I just want to show people you can overcome challenges if you put enough effort into it,” said Shulkin. Click on the image above to read more in the Metro today!
