Truly Thankful
“For those that want the 411 on the 911 situation that happened this past New Years morning, I spoke with the wonderful @dianesawyer to share details of the incident. Tune in if you like 😊.”
The post continued, “Thank you for all the positive, loving prayers for me and my family! I am so truly grateful and honestly overwhelmed with such goodness. It has taken the immediate actions of so many people that has kept me here alive.”
“Thank you will never be enough to express my gratitude … so I can offer up some ‘Free Snowcat Rides’ up at the house if you’re interested? 🤷♂️😉 🏔️,” he quipped at the end of the post.
Looking Back
At the beginning of the year, the actor suffered from more than 30 broken bones after being run over by a snow plow while helping a family member move a vehicle out of the snow.
Since then, he has had several surgeries and has been open about his recovery. At the end of last month, Renner posted a video of himself walking on a treadmill with help.
A teaser of the Sawyer interview was shared last week. In it, Renner gets emotional as he revisits a moment in the hospital where he apologizes to his family for the accident.
“I’ve lost a lot of flesh and bone in this experience, but I’ve been refueled and refilled with love and titanium,” Renner shared with Sawyer.
