Ronnie's Legs

A trip to Ninewells hospital this afternoon and what a surprise in the foyer! There is a display case with Ronnie's Legs, his Olympic torch and his Olympic outfit!

Ronnie was an amazing man, around 5 years ago he was in the same ward as my husband, they both had had legs amputated, only difference is this time it was Ronnie's second leg amputation. He was a fighter and before long we would see him out walking and entering races etc!!! Sadly Robbie has now passed on but he was an inspiration to us at a traumatic time in our lives and of course to many others !

He would have been so proud to know his false kegs and Olympic baton were on display in the hospital that did everything they could for him!

In memory of Ronnie

Busy time just now, will catch up as soon as I can !
