How a phone call made Lacey Henderson a Paralympian

US long jumper Lacey Henderson seemed like a dead cert for Rio
2016. But some personal issues came up and her performance

her life - and her outlook. Lacey is an amputee cancer survivor
with a wicked sense of humour. She shares her story ahead of the
2019 World Para Athletics Championships in Dubai.
