The story of Sang Lan.
Sang Lan, 17 years old, a gymnast from Ningbo, China, represented China in goodwill games. If there is no tragedy caused by the accidental miss before the single event, maybe she will attend the press conference and be interviewed by the media briefly as the champion of vault in the competition.

The accident happened in the warm-up training before the individual gymnastics competition. The time is 6: 00 am on July 22nd, Beijing time (the evening of July 2nd1Sunday, new york time), and the vault competition will be staged in Long Island Gymnasium soon. In the routine warm-up, she is full of energy. She has done handspring twice, and the little girl wants to do it again, although for a player who is good at vault, this action can be said to be "by heart". Unexpectedly, this last jump caused her lifelong regret.

The assistant coach of the American national team who witnessed the tragedy said: Sang Lan's movements are not very difficult. She seemed to hesitate when stepping and jumping, and turned a little more in the air. As a result, she landed on her head and immediately fell to the ground. China Coach and the medical staff on the side immediately rushed to give first aid. The poor girl went into shock for about 65,438+00 seconds, so everyone quickly fixed her and sent her to Nassau Medical Center on a stretcher. This can only be an accident.

The next day, the organizing committee held a press conference on the Sang Lan incident at the Gymnastics News Center in Long Island, which was also the press conference with the largest number of journalists participating in the championship. At the meeting, Dr. Leoni, the attending physician of Nassau Medical Center, introduced Sang Lan's injury to the media. After diagnosis and treatment, Sang Lan's cervical dislocation has been successfully restored. She was conscious, and her upper limb activity gradually improved, but she lost consciousness below the chest.

"When can I practice?" This is the first sentence that Sang Lan said when he woke up. When people heard the news from Zhao Yuxin, the captain of the China Gymnastics Team, they all stood in awe of Sang Lan. The girl may have been paralyzed just after the flower season.

Zhao Yuxin, who has been with Sang Lan at the bedside, told reporters with red eyes: "This child is very sensible. The day after the injury, I asked her if she wanted her mother and whether she wanted her mother to accompany her. She said,' No, don't let mom and dad come. They will be sad to see me like this. "Sang Lan's head and neck were pulled on both sides, motionless.
