What do you do in your spare time? Got to keep myself busy during recovery 😂🙌🏻
sing or dance contemporary
I’ve been playing disney dreamlight valley and it’s so calming and being friends with Minnie makes me happy. Get the basic version, that’s all you need. There is a livestream switch if you choose to film so it plays different music. It’s available on all platforms. If videos game controls are odd to you ask your brothers. It might be fun to collab.
I listen to music and then do some stretches.. I'm looking forward to doing a needle
Write, sing, watch a movie, read, dance….
Listening to music and doing art 😋 (coloring, drawing, painting, etc)
You have the sweetest family - it's so beautiful to see how supportive and loving you all are to each other.
Thank you so much! I feel so unbelievably lucky 🙌🏻
This is a wonderful video. You met the fear of career affecting surgery with poise. Dancing before you got changed for your procedure is inspiring. Your parents modeled such great love and care by there actions. You earn so much respect for showing the hard & slow days of early recovery; then basic PT. You appreciated the small steps and showed great patience. You may choose to teach someday.
Thank you so much! It really means a lot 🙏🏻🙏🏻
❤❤❤
Oh mums are the best aren’t they?!
I had surgery on my spine last year after a massive injury and my mum was with me for every emotional break down and every difficult moment of post surgery recovery. I couldn’t have a shower without her wrapping my entire torso and bum (!) in clingfilm and holding me up under the water - you just can’t compare a mama’s love can you? So many mental and physical ups and downs - the anxiety was totally impossible to describe to anyone who hadn’t been through it.
I found setting myself one small achievable target everyday helped and remembering that you will get there in time. They didn’t even think I’d walk properly again and now I’m dancing again. 🩰 Future ‘you’ will be okay: you just have to have faith and a good balance between determination to recover and a patient respect for your healing body’s limitations.
I have every faith in you, Hannah - you’ve got this! ❤ xx
Thank you so much for this encouragement ❤️🙏🏻 congratulations for your recovery and thank you for the inspiration. It’s nice to hear from people who have been through a similar experience!
Mums are the best 🙌🏻🌟
I hope u have a good recovery
Thank you 🙈🙏🏻
Hannah you are doing so well, proud of you. I had a knee replacement years ago, and I feel just the same as you did. I returned to work on a walking stick, and stopped using it in 2 weeks. I know how you feel about wanting to walk without aids. Hannah, I can't wait to see you dance again, I know you feel the same.
Thank you so much for sharing this! Being handicapped in this way only makes me further appreciate what my body can do. I will never take it for granted again!
My son is a footballer and is on week 5 of a broken fibula and is yet to weight bear, my ten year old Goddaughter is a dancer, actress, singer and does acro and she has already been in the West End so is highly talented and she injured her ankle badly but it is tendon and ligament damage and is three weeks into recovery so two very frustrated, depressed and bored impatient patients ... I am an ex dancer so i get how you feel as i remember coming back from injury so clearly.. I can see this isn't current so i hope you are back to full fitness and have made a full recovery by now xxx
Thank you for sharing. Injury is so tough and often unexpected! But I am so aware of everything I’m able to learn in this time, and I’m trying to be grateful. Embracing the experience 🙌🏻
@@HannahMartinRG You showed determination and grit , you were definately more patient than i was lol! My Goddaughter won a singing competition today using a two year old video so at least she is still able to sing, she is weight bearing now and my son is now partial weight bearing and was able to get his shoe on for the first time a couple of days ago.. so moving towards recovery.. how are you now?? i hope you are healing well and will be back stronger than you were prior to the surgery ... you are a fantastic role model to young dancers and especially to young girls who need hard working women with strong morals and a good heart to look up to. You are also a natural beauty which shows you don't NEED to be fake to look lovely xxx
Slow but steady, one day at a time. Your family is precious, keeping you positive.
Thank you! I feel so grateful for my fam ❤️🙌🏻
Love that you haven't given up, and trying so hard each day. Keep on going your doing amazing!!
Thank you so much!!
Im so sorry! You will get through it! I think i will draw a lot and listen to music. I can't wait for you to get better!💗
Thank you so much!
I twisted my ankle this summer and I’ve been retrained from the ice ever since. I’m about ready to go back..I’ve lost flexibility and I’m so nervous. But I know God wouldn’t waste talent and a good heart. I’m glad to see you’re recovery videos. They are so inspiring. Thank you for sharing 🙏🏻 it’s rough going through this. You don’t always have to keep your chin up. Remember to be kind to yourself like a plant trying to regrow. ❤❤❤
Thank you so much! That means a lot! I hope your return to the ice has been rewarding 🙏🏻❤️ congratulations for your recovery!
Someone once told me that they deliberately make pain medication that it makes you nauseous so that you don't get addicted. Good luck with your recovery!
Seriously? I can see the reasoning but at the same time it really makes post surgery life miserable!!
Why am I crying? Seriously. I cried when you did your last bit of dancing before the surgery and I cried at the end. I feel like this was very brave of you to document this, and I'm praying for a complete recovery and that you will come back a stronger and better dancer.
Thank you so much 🙈🙏🏻
I play music, and do plastic arts when I cannot dance but have to say that now I have a mild back injury after having a very long ankle one and it is hard not to give up, you are an inspiration🍀🌼
Thank you so much 🙏🏻 sending you strength for your journey too!
@@HannahMartinRG Thanks a lot!! 🐾🍀
I love the fact that you haven't given up and still think this is just a journey. I really hope you recover quickly. It gladdens me that you have the full support of your family. You are indeed a strong young lady and I love your videos so much Hannah
Thank you so much!🙈🙏🏻
@@HannahMartinRG OMG
It's alot to handle that YOU actually reacted to my post.. I mean I'm so glad☺️😊🤭 anyways you're most welcome
💖 incredible how strong you are!! and that you have got a supportive family!
I had surgery on my toes in April and couldn't dance properly for weeks! i enjoyed playing lots of games with family /friends while 'resting' ! praying for your quick recovery and rehab!
Thank you so much! I feel so grateful for the support of my family. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
You're doing so great Hannah! Stay strong, patient and positive, God is with you!
Thank you 🙏🏻🙏🏻
I am very touched by your recovery story. I danced ballet for 30 years and had to stop a few years ago after tearing my Achilles tendon. I know exactly how the time of healing feels, what thoughts you have, how you are happy about the smallest progress. And I especially remember the moment when I was allowed to walk without aids for the first time in months. I wish you only the very best. You have a great mental attitude and a great family that supports you 💖
You got this!’ Such an inspiration to me and my surgery of the left hip💪🏻
Good luck for your surgery ❤️🙌🏻
You're one of my fave people ever, so kind, caring and full of life and ambition. This video was definitely an emotional rollercoaster but i am soooooo proud of you for absolutely smashing it with recovery!! ❣cant wait for episode 3 😆 as someone with chronic fatigue you inspire me everyday with getting closer to my goals, keep being you
That honestly means a lot! Thank you! And congrats for your journey too! You got this 💪🏻💪🏻
Great step for you Hannah !!!!
Remember yo take it slowly step by step, it will get better i promise.
The restaurant look really pretty, your parents surely are proud of you.
Thank you so much 🙈🙏🏻
Blessings upon a complete recovery.
Thank you 🙈🙏🏻
You are just a wonderful person. I wish you all the best for the rest of recovery😊
Thank you so much!
Hi, this is from my mums account.
You are the biggest inspiration to me and I love each and every one of your videos!
I hope you have a speedy recovery Hannah xxx :)
Thank you so much 🙏🏻🙏🏻 that means a lot!
Hi giirl ❤❤❤!!! I really feel u! 🥺I got knee surgery 2 years ago and needed 6 months break from dancing and by that time now, I can say it was the best life lesson that gave me a much bigger perspective on dance and much more patience for myself and appreciation for what we can do with our bodies while we dance. I'm sure it'll be a hard journey but so fruitful and it will make you stronger than ever ❤🌸 sending love!!!❤❤❤
I'm so excited that you are getting better,quicker recovery ma'am
Thank you 🙏🏻
Hannah, I'm so happy your recovery is going well! I know this has been a tough journey for you, and I can't imagine what it must be like. Your positivity through it all is amazing!
Thank you so much! 🙈🙏🏻
You can do this, Hannah!! You are a huge inspiration to me as a fellow ballet dancer and sister in Christ. 🤍 I am praying for you!
Thank you so much!!
Yes you did it. Keep safe and keep going.
Thank you 🙏🏻
I had cysts growing on my Achilles tendon from pointe work and had similar impingement and pain when I was a young dancer (about 19 or so) I had them surgically removed, and I'm so glad I did!
Ah! They are pretty painful aren’t they? Makes pointe work pretty impossible!
@@HannahMartinRG so painful! I remember after getting that surgery how exciting it was to be able to point my foot without so much pain and have way more range of motion! I saw in your recent video that you're getting more flexibility back too!
Love this!! Watching you at home with you family makes me miss mine🥲
Bless you girl, I know how it feels to be away from family. Sending you strength ❤🙏🏻
Looking good. Glad you are recovering.
Thank you!
I can relate to your first days of recovery so much, my appendix got infected and it got removed with an emergency surgery and eating and drinking hurted so bad during the infection and after surgery that I didn't drink or eat for over a day but then you feel even worse because you dont have any engery and it becomes this battle between what is worse eating or not
I can relate to that so much 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Thank you for sharing this part of the journey! You're brave and strong! Good luck for the recovery! You'll conquer also this challenge, no doubt!
Thank you so much!
Hannah! your positive attitude will help you so much during your recovery.
I really enjoyed this video, you are the cutest
Thank you so much!!
Wishing you a speedy and complete recovery. Take care
Thank you 🙈🙏🏻
I had a similar surgery and I relate so much to everything in your video! Thank you so much for sharing :)
Wow! Congrats for your recovery! It’s certainly not an easy thing to go through!
I can’t believe you watched the video! Praying your healing goes smoothly.
Hehe, yes. I wanted to make sure they got rid of that pesky bone 😅
You are amazing!! You can do this 💓💓
Thank you so much!!
Hannah,🩰
I'm praying for the Lord to bless you with a speedy and complete recovery. 🙏
Jeremiah 17:14
"Heal me, O Lord, and I will be healed; save me and I will be saved, for you are the one I praise."
Thank you so much for your prayers! And this Scripture! It is so encouraging 🙏🏻

This made me pretty emotional because I'm currently injured on my back,i do RG and this season i was starting to compete in pre-national (is that how it's called?) and if i did well, even national competitions for the first time. It was a week before my first 2 competitions when i felt my back hurt a little, so we went to the physio so i could compete a bit more comfortably, but he just made it worse... I managed to compete fine the first competition and got 9th with clubs, an apparatus i don't have much experience with, the next day i had another competition but i realized very quickly that i wouldn't be able to compete, i mean i couldn't even walk, i was brushing my hair crying because my back just hurt so bad just by standing, the next week i had another competition but I couldn't compete there, nor the next comp, or the one after... Its been a month and half since that happened and I'm still injured, tomorrow i was supposed to compete too but i can't... 😭
Injuries are so tough. Especially when there are shows and competitions you are having to miss out on. Remind yourself that every difficult time will pass. And we can learn so much through the challenge of injury 🙌🏻
Now we know where you get your raw strength. You're momma.
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Why did you need surgery?
Hi, best wishes for your recovery :-)
PS: your fish tank isn’t recommended…it’s even forbidden in my country.
Oh gosh!! I had no idea!! Thank you for letting me know!
Wow, that bone is actually bigger than I pictured! I like to write stories when I have a ton of time off because it makes my brain feel more active and fufillef
Thanks for the suggestion! Maybe some stories might feature on my channel sometime soon!
I sometimes have hard times to hear you, so I turn the volume up, but then there is a music intermezzo and it is insanely loud, so I turn the volume down, but then you talk and I can't hear you etc. etc. Could you please unify sound volume in further videos? Thank you. Wish you a speedy recovery.
Thank you for your feedback. I have been trying to sort the audio issues on my videos for a while but still seem not to get it right. I will keep trying 💪🏻🙏🏻
👏😚❤🌷
