"[Artistic gymnastics] was my passion. I practised it since I was a child, but when I started having problems I had to give it up. The doctors advised me to swim. My mother Stefania took me there [Sporting Lodi swimming club]. It was the only sport I could do that was good for me." (Athlete, 09 Sep 2019; giornaleditreviglio.it, 30 Jun 2018)

Type of Impairment
Spinal Cord Injuries (Athlete, 09 Sep 2019)

Origin of Impairment
Congenital (Athlete, 09 Sep 2019)

Impairment Details
At age four she was diagnosed with congenital scoliosis, a condition that causes a sideways curvature of the spine. She had three operations on her vertebrae between 2015 and 2017. "I practically have a titanium spine. Those operations have also affected my nerves, so I have difficulty moving my left arm and leg. At home I use crutches for short distances, and to go out I have to use a wheelchair. The Para sport environment helps a lot. There are people who have more serious problems than mine, and they don't give up." (ecodibergamo.it, 14 Aug 2018; repubblica.it, 10 Jul 2018; giornaleditreviglio.it, 30 Jun 2018)
