As the parent of a disabled child I can honestly say that I think the Paralympics have served as a wonderful example of what mentally and physically disabled people can achieve in spite of their various problems. I've been moved to tears more than once in the last week or so by the terrific efforts, disappointments and wonderful celebrations of the athletes taking part in these games. I've no doubt that the wider public perception of the disabled globally will be much improved by what we've been privileged to witness during London 2012.
