One great things about my job is meeting great people. The woman I met yesterday was hit by a suspected drunk driver and thrown 60 feet. Her friend thought she was dead.
A week later she’s out of the hospital and making an incredible recovery. Oh, and she wants to meet the suspect to tell him she’s not angry. And there’s more…
A rattlesnake bit a little boy and the boy was flown to Memorial Hospital in Colorado Springs. I talked to the boy and his family at the hospital. He recovered amazingly well and is just a great little guy who now has a big story to tell.
The victims in this one really get an important, heartfelt message across.
They shared their pain and agony with me to help save lives. They are 2 victims out of many I’ve talked to over the years and all their stories put a lump in my throat. I wish I could’ve shared all of them in this one story, but that would’ve filled an entire newscast.
