The family glas communicates on the Internet site of the successful gymnast that it is the question this 13 years old girl is ever going to move again. The accident happend on Friday afternoon.
Here is something her parents wrote on her site (
www.imkeglas.nl):
This night she slept nicely. She saw already something better, something more colour. It is weekend, there isn't much to do in the VU (hospital). She has Fysiotherapie to move her legs and look if she could feel something. She can't do anything with her hands, but her arms are very strong. When you toutch her legs, she could feel it but she can't move them.
Imke is a brave, and strong girl. on the internetpage
www.imkeglas.nl you could support her. She like it very much if you write something!
