Congratulations!!! Such people as Ukrainian paralympians must be nominated with the prize of Ukraine's hero, because they are heroes indeed in Ukraine. Ukrainian state power must give financial prizes for all Ukrainian winners and medalists of Paralympics 2012 for their gold, silver and bronze medals, as Ukraine's present state power promised and declared before the beginning of the Paralympics. It's need to keep promises, especially before such persons, as paralympians. 
Paralympians are the examples for imitation in the life. They teach others how not to drop the hands, but to go ahead, winning the difficulties.
