The Paralympics begin NEXT WEEK! The Paralympics date back to 1948. These games began at a hospital for war veterans in Stoke Mandeville, about 60 kilometers north of London. German neurologist Sir Ludwig Guttmann was seeking a method to help his paraplegic patients—primarily World War II veterans—recover more swiftly. Since then, the Games have expanded to become a global phenomenon celebrating sport! Will you be watching?
