U.S.-born Deanna Stellato-Dudek and Canadian pairs partner Maxime Deschamps were able to practice Friday, two days before the individual competition begins, for the first time since her head injury put their Olympics in question. The former world champions were forced to withdraw from last weekend's figure skating team event after Stellato-Dudek hit her head on the ice during a training session on Jan. 30 in Quebec. “The last week and a half has been a living nightmare that I would not wish on anybody,” said the 42-year-old Stellato-Dudek, who was born in the Chicago suburb of Park Ridge, Illinois.
