"I have a particular difficult moment, but we will overcome it together. I feel worthy, I can walk, I can move. I have fun. The day after tomorrow we are leaving with his family to Israel, where I pass the entire examination. I fly to your doctor. What will be said - I do not know. I think everything will be positive, but if there are any operational intervention, the country learns. But I think everything will be okay.
Free skating in the team event, I rolled and tore two simple elements. Yes, I felt some pain in his back. It was not a disaster, such pain I rode. I decided to continue on the competition - in the individual standings.
I have been misunderstood. The pressure was on the part of the fans, it was a good pressure support.
10th I had some pain, but I was sure that skated with dignity. Of course, the whole year I was getting ready - ready quality, I did not work to the last minute to go on the ice and say that I can not ride. There is pain, which can not be tolerated, when you can not ride. It does not help any pain medication. I tried different medications that are permitted, but they did not help.
I am not making excuses. Naturally, you need to go to the Games and serve. Many times I rode through the pain and I can tolerate, but there is pain, which can not sustain.
I do not want to leave the sport. I may even take a ride! I wish a full recovery, even if it is necessary to do 10 operations, insert at least all the artificial intervertebral discs. I think to miss a couple of seasons, learn a couple of new quadruple jump and stay in the sport.
I do not exclude that I wanted to stay in the sport and prove to many, and above all to himself. I do not rule out that a statement on the fifth Olympics, "- said Plushenko.
