接受这项运动标志着Van Dyken-Rouen的另一个里程碑,在2014年ATV事故切断她的脊椎后,他从腰部以下瘫痪.

尽管受伤,她还是从事故中走了出来,进行了无数的手术,同样的精神帮助她在亚特兰大和悉尼获得了六枚奥运金牌。她超越了医生的期望,感觉膝盖和脚踝反射,甚至在外骨骼的帮助下走路.

Van Dyken-Rouen不仅在她自己的康复中起到了启发作用,而且还通过艾米的军队为其他人提供了灵感,这是她和她丈夫为帮助脊髓损伤患者而创立的基金会.

她希望以身作则表明即使是被切断的脊柱也无法带走速度越来越快的刺激。她说这是她从事故发生以来一直追逐的感觉.

    Amy Van Dyken-Rouen, the Olympic swimming gold medalist, has opened a new chapter in her life by adapting to skiing, which allows paralyzed athletes to recharge downhill. This marks another milestone for Van Dyken-Rouen, who has been paralyzed from the waist down since an ATV accident in 2014. Despite her injury, she has undergone numerous surgeries and the same spirit that helped her win six Olympic gold medals in Atlanta and Sydney. She has exceeded doctors expectations, feeling knee and ankle reflexes and even walking with the help of an exoskeleton. Now, she has accepted a new challenge: downhill skiing. For her, it is freedom. Her husband, Tom Rouen, said skiing can help his wife continue to burn her competitive fire. Van Dyken-Rouen not only inspires her own recovery but also inspires others through the Amys Army Foundation, which she and her husband established to help spinal cord injury patients. She hopes to set an example that even a severed spine cannot take away the increasingly fast-paced stimulation.
