Jeremy Renner Calls Daughter ‘Reason Number One’ for Recovery
By Movieguide® Contributor
A year after his near-fatal snowplow accident, AVENGERS star Jeremy Renner is sharing that his daughter was his number one reason for his recovery.
“Reason number One for my recovery is her,” Renner wrote on his social media on Monday. “I asked her to ‘wait for me’ when I first saw her January 14 as I arrived home. As I got better, she got better, less afraid. There is simply no better motivator to recover than to heal your family and friends….With gratitude always, thank you all for your love and support this last full year. I needed every ounce of goodwill and prayer ??.”
Movieguide® previously reported on Renner’s accident last year.
Renner was injured on January 1 while clearing snowfall from his Nevada property. After exiting from his snowplow, the vehicle began to slide, heading straight for his adult nephew. In an effort to slow down or stop the snowplow, Renner attempted to step on the track but was pulled under the vehicle instead and was fully run over.
The actor “broke over 30 bones and underwent multiple surgeries,” per PEOPLE.
The actor showed his appreciation for those who saved his life by making a special stop at the hospital where he recovered.
He decided to bless the hospital with “joy, blessings, and pizza.”
The actor wrote on his Instagram, “Rollin through Reno, NV with joy, blessings, and ?!!!! Stopped by to see kids/superheroes , first responders , and doctors, nurses and staff at Renown hospital Paying my respects and celebrating love, life and the blessings it brings to us all. Thank you and this community for keeping me here.. I’m forever in your debt with gratitude.”
