Professional sports career

Hey people, i was wandering if anyone here played or plays sport professionally, like has a professional contract and maybe lives off of it? I played volleyball for the best club in Serbia and I'm battling UC for the last 2 years now and currently im in the worst flare I've ever been... Has anyone reincarnated their careee or continued? I'm still young, im 22 and i still have hope that I can make a comeback. I was hospitalized 2 times, changed 3 biologics, currently on Stelara. I also lost 50lbs in course of those 2 years but i refuse to give up!
