In an unsettling turn of events to start the new year, acclaimed actor Jeremy Renner has shared a distressing account of a snowplow accident that occurred on New Year’s Day, leaving him with severe injuries.
The incident, which unfolded in the vicinity of Lake Tahoe, involved Renner being tragically run over by his own 7-ton Pistenbully snow groomer as he attempted to help free a relative’s car stuck on a private road.
Renner, aged 52, is currently recuperating at home from what Nevada officials have described as serious chest injuries sustained during the mishap.
In a heartening display of resilience and gratitude, Renner took to social media this Saturday to extend his “much love and appreciation” towards those who have sent him messages of support and kindness throughout this challenging time.
In his poignant message, Renner revealed that he suffered fractures in over 30 bones due to the accident.
He reflected on the ordeal with a positive outlook, stating, “These 30 plus broken bones will mend, grow stronger, just like the love and bond with family and friends deepens.” This statement not only highlights his physical recovery journey but also underscores the emotional healing and strengthening of bonds that crises often bring about in families and communities.
Renner also shared how the accident has led to a significant shift in his New Year’s resolutions and routines, noting that the tragedy has transformed into a source of “uniting actionable love” for him and his family.
It’s a testament to how unforeseen adversities can sometimes change our perspectives and priorities in profound ways.
Moreover, despite the challenges in his recovery, including bouts of “brain fog,” Renner expressed enthusiasm for spending quality time with his family.
