        First thing I thought of when I read this! Seems that there's a South Park example for every scenario these days.

        Disgusting behaviour by taking advantage of real disabilities by an able bodied person.

        How can anyone be despicable. Genuine athletes with disabilities will now be put under greater scrutiny. If she received any form of funding she and her mother should be prosecuted for fraud.
