Winning for my son

为儿子而贏

Oksana Chusovitma, a veteran of five Olympics who won a team gold medal in 1992 with the Unified1 Team of athletes from the former Soviet2 Union, earned an individual silver medal on August 17,2008 when she did two sturdy vaults4.

2008年8月17日,老将奥克萨丘索维金娜在做了两个稳健的跳马后赢得了一枚个人银牌。她参加了五届奥运会,并于1992年代表前苏联获得女子团体体操金牌。

Her 9-year-old son, Alisher, is in recovery from leukemia, the illness that brought Chusovitina to Germany six years ago. It is because of that illness that Chusovitina competes for Germany instead of her native Uzbekistan. And gymnastics helped save Alisher’s life.

她9岁的儿子阿廖沙正在从白血病中康复。阿廖沙的病使得丘索维金嫌在6年前移居德国。为了给阿廖沙治病,丘索维金娜离开祖国乌兹别克臟,改为德国出战。体操帮助她挽救了阿廖沙的生命。

Chusovitina is unusual among the ponytailed sprites who dominate the sport. She has short hair and straight bangs. Her leotards aren’t sparkly or in pastel pinks or purples; she prefers daiicer colors.

丘素维金娜和从亊这项运动的年轻人不同。留着短发,直刘海的她不穿闪闪发光或淡粉色或淡紫色的紧身衣她更喜欢深色。

And she is not finished, according to what she said Sunday, silver medal in hand. “I could go to London in 2012,” she said. “I will only be 37.”

周日获得银牌后,她说她的征途还没有结束。她说广我2012年 还要去伦敦,我到时也只有37岁。”

In 2002 she and her husband, wrestler5 Bakhodir Kurpanov, were competing at the Asian Games in South Korea when her mother called to say Alisher was sick.

她和丈夫摔跤选手巴霍德古帕诺夫在参加2002年韩国亚运 会时接到她母亲打来的电话,被告知阿廖沙生病了。

When Chusovitina returned home, it was to find out he had leukemia.

当丘索维金娜回到家时,得知阿廖沙被确诊为白血病。

The family had no health insurance, and Uzbekistan no specialist oncology facilities.

家中没有医疗保险,乌兹别克斯坦也没有专门治疗肿瘤的设施。

“If I don’t compete, then my son won’t live, it’s as simple as that’ said Chusovitina at the time. “My son underwent an operation today, and the only reason he managed to get that treatment is because I am earning money. I have no choice,”

丘索维金娜当时说:“如果我不参加比赛,那么我的儿子就活不下去,就这么简单,我儿子今天接受了手术,他能接受治疗的唯一前提是我在嫌钱,我别无选择。”

Seeking advanced medical treatment for their son, Chusovitina and her husband accepted an offer of help from Shanna and Peter Brttggemann, head coaches of the Toyota Cologne club, and moved to Germany. With prize money earned from gymnastics competitions, along with the help of the Brflggemanns and members of the international gymnastics community who fundraised and donated to the cause,Chusovitina was able to secure treatment for Alisher at tiie University of Cologne’s hospital. While Alisher underwent treatment in Cologne, Chusovi-tina trained with the German team.

为了给儿子寻求先进的治疗,丘索维金娜和她的丈夫接受了来自丰田科鼸俱乐部的总教练沙 娜和彼得布吕格曼提供的帮助,并移居德国。拿着赚取的体操比赛奖金和布吕格曼夫妇与国际体操联营机构成员的资助,丘索维金娜才能够确保阿廖沙在科隆大学医院接受治疗。阿廖沙在科隆接受治疗时,丘索维金娜在和德国队一起训练,

No matter how much her legs screamed or back ached, she couldn’t stop. Her son was dying; she had no insurance, so she couldn’t stop. The medical bills were stacked to the sky, and she had no money.

无论她的腿多酸背多疼,她都不能停止。她的儿子瀕临死亡,她又没有保险,所以她不能休息。她没有钱去支付天价的医疗费。

Uzbekistan released Chusovitina to compete for Germany in 2003. However, due to rules requiring three years of residency, she was unable to gain German citizenship6 immediately. From 2003 to 2006 she trained in Germany but continued to compete for Uzbekistan, representing Aem at the 2003 md 2005 World Cham-pionships and the 2004 Olympics. In 2003, thirteen years after her World Championships debut7, Chusovitina won the gold medal on the vault3 at that year’s World Championships in Anaheim.

乌兹别克斯坦于2003年同意丘索维金娜为德国参赛。然而,由于法律规定要住3年才可以入籍,所以她无法立即获得徳国国籍。从2003年到2006年,她在徳国训练但仍继续为乌鈸别克斯坦效 力,并代表乌兹别克斯坦参加了2003年、2005年的世界镩标赛和2004年的奥运会。2003年丘索维金娜夺得了阿纳海姆世界锦标赛跳马金牌,此时距她首次亮相世锦赛已经过了13年。

In 2006, Chusovitina obtained German citizenship. Her first competition for Germany was the 2006 World Championships, where she won a bronze medal on the vault and placed ninth in the all-around.

2006年,丘索维金娜获得徳国国籍。她首次代表德国参赛是2006年世锦赛,在那次比赛中她获得了跳马铜牌和个人全能第九名。

Healthy now, Alisher excels at gymnastics, according to Chusovitina’s coach, Shaima Poljakova.

据丘索维金娜的教练莎娜说阿廖沙现在康复了,并撞长体操。

Although Chusovitina is most comfortable speaking Russian, she did interviews Sunday in German that was translated to English.

虽然她更习惯说俄语,但她周日接受采访时说的却是德语,并被翻译成英语。

She feels like an 18-year-old, Chusovitina said,and the silver medal felt wonderful.

她说她觉得自己只有18岁,获得银牌的感觉非常好。

“I won it for my son,” she said of Alisher, who’s back home attending school,‘That makes me happy,”

她说我为我的儿子获得了胜利,这使我感到快乐。”她的儿子阿廪沙现在已经回家上学了。
