The support of family and friends only motivates the athlete, and he continues to move on. On social media, Roman posts videos of his training and success. His wife is there to help him and support him.

Fans are sure that over time Roman Kostomarov will return to the ice. But it is too early to say how and when. Alexander Zhulin has already offered the athlete the place of coach for beginner skaters. It was under the leadership of Zhulin star couple Roman Kostomarov and Tatiana Navka won the Olympic Games in 2006.



So now the former coach is already actively discussing with his colleague the topic of work. As Alexander admitted in the TV program “Breakfast with a Star” by Alexander Dobrovinsky, the coach’s job is not to show figurative elements, but to tell.

After all, a real professional, such as Roman, can spot inaccuracies in movements and point out mistakes for young skaters. As Zhulin said, “A coach can afford to tell, not show.”



Also Zhulin said that, most likely, the cause of the malaise of Roman was a dislocated shoulder on January 1. Then there was a very busy schedule and in order not to lose pace, Roman began to prick painkillers. And such drugs also have an anti-inflammatory property, so they knocked his temperature down. And the disease in Roman's body continued to progress.

The fact that Roman is alive is a miracle. Today, he continues to fight for his life, showing everyone else an example of resilience and endurance.
