Kostomarov was hospitalized in January 2023 with an advanced cold that turned into a severe form of pneumonia.

The athlete's condition was rapidly deteriorating - necrosis of the limbs began. To save Roman's life, it was decided to amputate his feet and fingers. But that didn't help either. Doctors had to amputate the athlete both hands and legs to the shin.

In May, Kostomarov first got in touch from the hospital. The difficult trials that he had to go through left their mark on the appearance of the skater: gray hair, a lost look. Then rumors spread that the champion refuses to work with a psychologist.

H, judging by the latest shots from Kommunarka, the experiences were in vain. The Olympic champion returns to training again - he skillfully masters movements with prostheses.

Kostomarov is already confidently pedaling the exercise bike, quickly climbing the stairs and swinging his legs. It seems that everything is easy, but, of course, to achieve such success, Roman made a lot of efforts.

And he does not even think to give up: “Every day I try to do something new. True, I want to run and jump already.

So far, Roman has been given prostheses only for his legs, and these are temporary options. First you need to master them, and after them there will be permanent ones.

In May, rumors spread that the skater was secretly discharged from the hospital and sent to Germany. German doctors have repeatedly offered their help in his treatment.

“He was discharged quietly, without publicity. We were immediately taken to the airport in a special vehicle. So now Roman Kostomarov is probably already undergoing rehabilitation in a private clinic, where he will continue to receive prosthetics, ”said sources in the hospital.

But, as we see, Roman still remained in the Russian Federation.
