Jayme Paris - Bronze Medallist

On what must be the proudest day of her life, Jayme Paris has triumphed against all odds to become a Paralympic Bronze medallist at her first Paralympic Games today.

In an emotional interview after the medal ceremony Jayme thanked those who have inspired her to reach her goal.

Our group first met Jayme in May this year during our regular lunch meeting. Hearing Jayme tell her life story inspired so many of us as well.

Jayme, all of the Spirit of Sydney team are so proud of what you have done, for yourself, your family, your country and our members.

As you have said, nothing is impossible, your efforts are testament to that, and a message to those who need to re-kindle faith in their dreams.

Congratulations Jayme.
