Ugh, how did I know someone at LPSG would point out an innocent mistake like that?
When I wrote it I knew it might be the wrong way to describe him, but I googled "paraplegic Oscar Pistorius" and came up with other results so I went ahead and described him that way. I admit to not knowing exactly what paraplegic means and whether or not it exactly applies to Oscar, but it sounded better to me than "amputee" which is why I chose to go with it.
