The Olympic champion survived the amputations of his feet, shins and hands. With the help of the treating doctors, Roman defeated the pneumonia with which he entered Kommunarka. Due to the large amount of drugs, the athlete’s body was very weakened for a long time. In addition, the patient was depressed after returning from the coma.

Oksana Domnina was by her husband’s side in the hospital during those three months, helping him fight for his life. The skater spent Easter Sunday with the closest people – his wife, son and daughter, who came to him for intensive care. Doctors talked about Kostomarov’s health.

“Roman’s condition improved significantly by Sunday, as if a small Easter miracle had happened. He feels good now,” the source told RBC Sport.

Last week, the skater began to actively restore his muscles after amputation operations. He is already sitting on the bed without help. The doctors assured that the patient’s organs are already in order, he does not have a temperature. Kostomarov is preparing for prosthetics. Doctors are sure that all unforeseen situations are in the past for him.
