JULY 17TH 2008:
There is some very sad news. Laura has had to withdraw for the Beijing team because of a back injury. A slipped disc has meant Laura has trapped nerves down her legs and it would not be safe for Laura to compete so soon. As you can imagine Laura is very upset but determined to bounce back from this stronger than before. Laura would really appreciate your messages of support in her guestbook.
