Very inspirational, that despite his injury fighting for Israel that he still has the drive and desire to make the most of the cards that he was dealt. Everything is from Hashem.

Daniela ,   London, UK   (09.08.12)
I was there today to support you in the stadium. The atmosphere was incredible and your team mates were amazing at cheering you on. You really are an inspiration! Kol Hakavod and Mazal Tov!!! It was fantastic to be with you as the Israeli flag rose up, singing the hatikvah with many Londoners. You did Israel proud, jews proud around the world and ultimately you did yourself proud. A true champion! The hug between your mum and you was incredibly emotional and she must be so so so proud of you! Enjoy the closing ceremony and come back to London, we would love to see you in action again, perhaps at Wimbledon 2013.

Frances ,   Netanya, Israel   (09.10.12)
Limor Livnat's comments totally surprised me.... "You had an entire country glued to the screens throughout the games and you added a golden shimmer to the Israeli mission's great success in the games," Two 30 minute pogrames were shown each day on Channel 11 of the Paralympic Games and for the most part, these programs were "talk shows". I didn't see very much of any of the competitions, so I don't know how Limor Livnat "had the country glued to their screens"!!!
