Twitch Streamer Adriana Chechik Resumes Streaming, Shares Deets on Recovery

Adriana Chechik, who gained attention earlier this month after breaking her back twice at TwitchCon, resumed streaming and provided some updates on her recuperation. For those unaware, Chechik broke her back at TwitchCon after jumping into a foam pit. Despite the pit's apparent shallowness, Chechik's seemingly harmless move caused her to smash her tailbone so hard against the ground that it "completely crushed" her bones, fused several vertebrae, and caused "nerve damage to [her] bladder." Furthermore, her recovery has been a difficult process. After a physical therapy appointment on October 13, she wrote the following:

Tried sitting up today in PT, I would rather die than do that again. I hate this my whole body hates it. I don’t want to be tough. I don’t want to be brave I cried for a hour and the pain is so immense through all the meds im on. Idk if I can do this. I can’t explain this pain.

More details Adriana Chechik returned to Twitch over the weekend to provide additional updates on the injuries, their effects, and how she is doing weeks after the event. She is currently at home following many surgeries, one of which lasted more than five hours.

Be careful on this thing guys. I’m currently at the hospital seeing if I broke anything. ? https://t.co/SNHHl5XZEE

Moreover, in a video, Chechik talks about how even the most routine everyday activities still leave her gasping for air. She also displayed a massive scar that runs down the middle of her back. Later, when she was still in the hospital, she claims that tests run on her indicated that she had been unknowingly pregnant at the time of the accident. But she lost the baby as a result of the spine surgery that was necessary. On the other hand, neither Twitch (the TwitchCon organizer) nor Kairos Media (the creative firm actually operating the booth) has made any public comments in response to this or other injuries sustained during the event.
