Silva was an active paraglider and a member of the Spanish National Paragliding Team. In May 1989, while training for the Austrian hosted World Championships, she was involved in an accident that left her a paraplegic. She was treated at the Hospital Nacional de Parapléjicos in Toledo in 1990.
In the late 1990s, Silva became actively involved in participating in and promoting disability sport in Spain. She actively sought sponsorship for herself and other athletes. One of the organisations she founded was Fundación También, with her brother one of the early people to serve on its board. Her organisation would later attract royal support from people like the Los Príncipes de Asturias.〔 It encourages and facilities people with disabilities participating in sports like skiing, bicycling, sailing, table tennis, canoeing and scuba diving.〔http://www.tambien.org/index.php?id=5〕 In 2007, she was serving as the director of the Fundación También, a position she continued to hold in 2010, and 2012.
