I didn't watch the entire season of The Amazing Race 14 but the finale was truly amazing... It was tear jerking. A few drops of tears managed to make their way out from my eyes.

I understood how frustrating it can be when you are the early bird and that you are full of confidence and yet at the very last stage, you had to fall & fail yourself.
While watching, i saw Luke, the deaf guy trying endlessly to replace the last 2 surfboards. He started fast, however, almost to the end, he just couldn't pick out the correct surfboards.
in the end, the winning team who consisted of Victor & Tammy proceeded to the finishing point while Margie & Luke together with the cheerleaders team were struggling. Margie decided to ask Luke to help Jaime picked out the 1st surfboard. After Jaime was done with the road block, she helped Luke checked all his answers.
Jaime & Luke who did the road block was inevitably disappointed with themselves & blaming their respective team failure on themselves.
Margie, comforted Luke and frankly i really think Luke did an excellent job though he really can be like a little boy at times.
Upon returning to the cheering crowd from all the eliminated participants & winners, Phil Keoghan, the host ask what Luke had to say to his mom and he signalled that he was glad to have Margie as his mother. That not many deafs are fortunate enough to have a mom who signs.
I'm proud of both Margie & Luke. :)
Love,
