Sports Untold Stories / Bryall McPherson

At 18 years of age Bryall McPherson was a young tennis prodigy bound for the American Collegiate system when suddenly she broke her arm while playing tennis. After being rushed to hospital she was diagnosed with an aggressive form of bone cancer which meant she would either have to have her arm amputated or die. This is her story, and how she got through the hardship and devastation to take up swimming and become one of New Zealand's leading Para-Olympians. This the most emotional interview I have ever done.
