Overview
- Lindsey Vonn posted Instagram video showing Karin Kildow on crutches with a knee brace and welcomed her as “Patient No. 2” to their shared rehab.
- Social-media clips show the sisters working together on early therapy, while how Kildow injured her knee remains unreported.
- Vonn’s Olympic crash caused a complex tibia fracture and other damage that required multiple surgeries, including an emergency fasciotomy.
- She had torn her ACL days before the Games, so surgeons plan to address ligament repair only after the fracture fully heals.
- Vonn says she is focused on recovery and not ready to discuss her skiing future, despite her father telling the Associated Press he believes her career is over.
