@mary - if you go for instance?
Pleeeeeeese? (looks pleading)

For now I have not yet started training, but I will start already this week. So, I'm not ready yet to clearly and definitely say what I decided. It all depends on my health. I feel myself much better now, rest gave me forces, I recovered, stayed with the family ...

- There still remained unconquered peaks and unfulfilled dreams?
- My biggest dream is health. That nothing bother. If the injuries not restrain my flurries, can happen something even interesting. In Novogorsk, 23rd of May I will start working with a coach on general physical preparation, and with my constant choreographer David Avdysh. I do not need already, thank God, to run somewhere with unsheathed sword, as it happened before the Olympics in Sochi.
