Angelic PO24-32

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.
