Roman Kostomarov said that his friends joke about him after amputations
Olympic champion in ice dancing Roman Kostomarov spoke on the “Will Show” about the jokes of his friends after the amputations he experienced.
The athlete gave an example of the jokes of figure skater Maxim Stavissky. “Your parking is free, you don’t need a manicure or pedicure, your feet don’t sweat, you don’t need socks.” I say: “You need socks on your hands,” Kostomarov said.
Earlier, the Olympic champion spoke about the difficulties of living with prosthetics. He noted that they are the most difficult to put on in everyday life.
In January 2023, Kostomarov was hospitalized with pneumonia and influenza B. Due to prolonged connection to a blood oxygenation machine and a ventilator, his tissue began to die. Doctors amputated both feet of the skater, then the shins of both legs, the entire hand of his right hand and several fingers of his left. Later, he was fitted with prosthetic legs and right arm.
