Robert Oliver
Rob is a sad example of medical error,
Because after he suffered a fractured leg,
Hospital doctors failed to do tests to render,
His leg heathy, so amputation was his keg.
However, he’s turned tragedy into success,
Because having been an amateur footballer,
He’s now a para-canoeist in the KL3 class,
With gold he’s the 2015 European controller.
In 2015 he took silver in the K1 200m KL3,
At the World Champs. in Milan and made Rio,
He’s sacrificed a lot and says that “Firstly,
I was so angry with everyone, everything, [oh]”
