Olympic skier Lindsey Vonn has shared that she returned home following her devastating crash at the Winter Olympic Games. Updating fans on her recovery after suffering a complex tibia fracture in Milan Cortina, the new Instagram post featured photos of Vonn resting with her bandaged leg and wrote, “Home sweet home. Feels good to sleep in my own bed…,” later resharing the update with the caption, “Finally home.”
Reflecting on the emotional toll of the past month, she admitted, “Wheeling through the front door without Leo greeting me like always was a very hard reality. A reality I had to face along with many other hard realities that lay in front of me as I move forward…,” referencing the loss of her dog just one day after her accident. Vonn said she is now concentrating “on therapy and getting healthy,” acknowledging that “it’s going to be a hard and painful journey, but I am putting all of my energy into it, like I always do.” She also told followers, “I’m going to take some time for myself. I’ll give you updates when I can, but right now my focus is on taking care of myself.”
