We got scared as soon as we read the news…
Luckily, the tumor they found in Natalia’s left ankle was benign.
Whew!
Girlfriend went under the knife last Thursday to get the tumor removed. She won’t be able to play for 6 weeks but she will start therapy this Monday. Natalia will rejoin the team just in time for the 2011 Grand Prix.
“I feel so relieved when I discovered what was causing me so much pain. I am calm, confident and pain-free now.” according to Natalia.
We wish you a speedy recovery Natalia!
