HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (AP) -- Margaret Hoelzer squirms in the leather chair, trying to get comfortable. She kicks off the flip-flops and tucks her feet underneath her body. Shifting again, she slings her legs over the side of the chair, revealing the star-spangled toenail polish that still remains from the Beijing Olympics.
She takes a deep breath, ready to reveal her secret -- saying she was sexually abused as a child.
Now, the swimmer who won three medals at the Beijing Olympics is ready to share her story and work to make sure what she says happened to her doesn't happen to other kids....

I read this too... I am so sorry she had to go through that (or any other child). I'm glad she is speaking out and is on her way to helping children in the future.
