England Wheelchair Rugby League player and World Cup winner James Simpson, who lost both legs in an IED explosion in Afghanistan at the age of 23, pens a special letter to his coach.
It took me back to when I was in the military and how important those things were. Playing wheelchair rugby got those things back out of me again, those things that I had perhaps left behind, thinking I didn't need them anymore. I think its easy in sport to lose track of coaches when they move on. I don't want to do that this time

"Gratitude turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos into order, confusion into clarity ... it makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow."
