He communicates using eye gaze technology and his work is uplifting and positive - Merry Beau http://merrybeau.edublogs.org/2014/10/15/update-a-local-hero-simon-fitzmaurice/]]> 2016-11-30 20:16:44 UTC https://padlet.com/matariki/525p1212uaqj/wish/140956963 https://padlet.com/matariki/525p1212uaqj/wish/141663665 I think that Novák Károly Eduárd is the perfect example of being persistent, positive and resilient. He was initially a speed skater. He lost one of his feet in a car accident. Novák didn't give up and become a professional cyclist. At the 2008 Paralympic Games Novak won the silver medal in the individual time trial, thus capturing Romania's first ever Paralympic medal.  - Kiss László  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carol-Eduard_Novak ]]> 2016-12-05 07:53:31 UTC https://padlet.com/matariki/525p1212uaqj/wish/141663665
