Nurse says former skater Kostomarov was hysterical after foot amputation

Roman Kostomarov, the champion of the 2006 Olympic Games in Turin, had a hard time with the decision to amputate his feet. This was reported to the Dni.ru edition by a source familiar with the situation.

The source
He was sobbing and howling from the horror and realization of what had happened. And this is understandable, because the man became disabled, he was truly hystericalю

The 46-year-old Kostomarov was hospitalized with signs of pneumonia in a serious condition on January 10, and two weeks later he was put in a medically induced coma and connected to a ventilator and ECMO. The ex-figure player regained consciousness, but because of the damaged blood supply Kostomarov developed necrosis and sepsis, which provoked gangrene in his legs and led to the amputation of his left foot.

On February 13, "Match TV" reported that early this week a decision would be made on the need for further operations to save the athlete's life.
