Lidiya Marozava was a tennis player in the past, and now she is coaching. In March, the girl received a diagnosis that is completely unexpected at her age, and in June, she shared how she is doing now.
On March 13, Lidiya posted on Instagram, mentioning that she had suffered a stroke:
«This is me enjoying a beautiful morning walk with Jackendom (the dog — NN) about ten minutes before the left side of my body went numb.»
Lidiya rarely speaks publicly about her life, but she made an exception for the story of her stroke. The girl points out that strokes are increasingly occurring in people younger than 40. Therefore, it is worth taking better care of one's health and preventing chronic diseases that can increase the risk of strokes.
Experiencing such an ordeal was not easy for Lidiya:
«Now there are many emotions and experiences of various kinds, and it's difficult. But thanks to the colossal support and unconditional love from family and friends (and, of course, a huge number of my favorite bouquets), I not only gain confidence – I just feel and know that everything will definitely be alright.»
Already on April 6, Lidiya, who lives in Warsaw, wrote a post inviting people to her tennis training sessions. On May 8, the girl published a video of herself playing tennis.
And on June 12, Lidiya published a video on her stories of her first run after the stroke. She couldn't hold back her emotions:
«We have news, we have three kilometers in this run after a lot. Among the good news, we have a couple more: I'm walking, I'm moving, I'm not heading to the cardiology center. As for not-so-good news — my leg exited the chat again, but that's a minor thing.
This is very emotional, but I'm so happy, oh my goodness. On my own feet, and my little heart was still almost beating on its own, and everything worked out.»
Lidiya played in international tennis tournaments for many years, specializing in doubles. She has four WTA doubles titles, reached tournament finals several times, but will no longer compete from 2025 onwards. Lidiya also played for the Belarusian national tennis team.
In February 2024, Marozava became one of the co-founders of the Warsaw cafe Just Like You.
