“This is a great hospital to come to if you need any type of assistance. It’s good to come back and see them and smile. To let them know that because of you, I’m here.” – Chris, Trauma Survivor Today, Chris, his wife and friends returned to Grand Strand Medical Center to celebrate his journey of recovery with a Victory Lap around the hospital. In June 2023, Chris was involved in a near-fatal motorcycle crash where he sustained multiple rib fractures, tibia/fibula fracture, right femur fracture, base skull fracture and hand fractures. Chris spent a total of 96 days in the hospital recovering from his injuries. He wasn’t expected to walk again for two years, but he is able to walk short distances just a little over a year with a cane. During the victory lap, Chris spent time reuniting with colleagues throughout the hospital who were part of his care team. He was also presented with our hospital's challenge coin which represents the strength and courage he exemplified during his journey to trauma survivorship and challenge himself to go out into the world to make a positive impact in the lives of others. Thank you to our media partners at WMBF News and WPDE ABC15 News for sharing Chris’ story with our community! 💙🧡
