Rachel Stoyanov couldn't return to gym for 6 months due to injury
Every day was extremely important. There were sleepless nights when thoughts were ruining me, but I knew one step at a time things would get better. Every little step made me extremely happy...
I learned to walk with crutches and go up and down the stairs with it, then I was able to walk without it. Feeling of being back in gym and training with my team was priceless. I enjoyed like kid every single exercise I was able to do. There was also a lot of fear - to sit down and drive, to try to run... and let me jump... this was already too scary.
I actually realized how much importance these small moments that remained insignificant in my everyday life mean.
