As good as gold: Massie caps long journey at Pyeongchang Paralympics
JEONGSEON, Korea, Republic Of — Wendy Massie heard the howls. They pierced through what had been a picture perfect morning at the family’s cottage in Pointe au Baril, on the east coast of Georgian Bay.
From what she could make out from the panicked screams coming from the dock, her youngest son Alex had been cut badly. She bolted from the cottage and as she ran, she grabbed a rope from behind the boathouse to use as a tourniquet.
“I wasn’t sure what I was going to see,” Wendy said.
She arrived upon a mother’s worst nightmare.
