“I am doing very well considering the circumstances, in my opinion,” McCready said. “The support, love, and prayers have been so influential for me.”
According to reports, another high school student was looking for a parking spot at approximately 7:50 a.m. and attempted to back up. He struck both students, who were airlifted to University of Maryland Shock Trauma in Baltimore.
McCready suffered the most serious injuries, but by Monday afternoon, she was posting information on Facebook about her condition.
“I know there are lots of worried people out there. I personally am doing fine, however, I do have a punctured liver, a few broken bones in various places, and some bruises and scrapes,” she said. “I just want to thank you all for the love, support and prayers. I am so blessed to have such a great flow of support.”
Echols was released from the hospital on Tuesday, while McCready remains at Shock Trauma.
“I just hope that we both recover quickly and that Meg gets discharged from the hospital soon,” he said.
McCready thanked the teachers and crew who took care of her at the school, on the helicopter and at University of Maryland Shock Trauma center.

Who are the flight medics making decissions on life flight pass a trauma center, PENN HOSP for minor injuries.
ReplyDeleteShe needs a blood transfusion to save her life, fractured pelvis & lacerated liver. I would definitely not call that a minor injury.
DeleteGod bless them both on their recovery, so preventable so sad.
ReplyDeletethese were not minor injuries...the correct decision was made!
ReplyDeleteObviously more trained in the medical field than you are.it is the decision of the flight medics,as to where the best care for the injuries should be.due to the mechanism of the injuries,they were sent to one of the top trauma centers in the us.
ReplyDeleteI am glad to hear she and him are doing well, but who ever was talking bad about the driver who accidentally did this please pray for him as well, he didn't mean to and slipped, that's why we call them accidents, so pray for him that he gets through this too...
