Today, the Olympic champion is 46 years old. He met his birthday in the intensive care unit of the hospital in Kommunarka. Oksana Domnina publicly addressed her husband.

“Happy birthday my hero…my strong…my love…my champion of everything!!! – the athlete wrote on his personal blog. — I am proud of you, your courage, your strength, the drive to win as soon as possible in these difficult moments!!! Exactly one year ago we could not imagine even in our worst dreams that such a revolution in life could happen… but now it is… And we will overcome everything, we will cope with everything, I believe!! !

On the eve of Kostomarov, both legs were amputated. The reason was gangrene, which affected the skater’s leg. Doctors reported that they tried to save his hands. Many Ice Age participants, coaches and friends have been writing Domna words of support.

“Thank you to everyone who is not indifferent,” Oksana thanked. “Only with good thoughts, prayers, and positive energy can we support and help Roman, because from the point of view of medicine, everything is possible and impossible.”

The world champion and bronze medalist from the 2010 Olympics also addressed journalists. The figure skater asked to stop calling her, relatives, acquaintances and friends.

“I understand that it is your job… to find information and write what is true and false… But only Roman… if he sees fit, he will tell about everything when he recovers !!! And that will definitely happen soon! You just have to be patient!!! Each!!! Hello everyone … because this is the most important thing in life !!! It’s a shame that we only really appreciate it in hard times!!! Appreciate your health, friends!!!” on behalf of Domnina.

Kostomarov is on a drip after the operation because his temperature rises. Doctors believe that his leg may be amputated at the knee.
