George Boamah

A Second Chance

The first time George got into a motorcycle, he woke up in the ICU. He was without a helmet and sustained serious injuries that severely impacted his mobility. George opened his eyes for the first time after one month in the ICU. He felt defeated before coming to Hospital for Special Care. It was going to be a long road to recovery, but his team told him to “give yourself a chance.” So he did.

Now, he’s working on walking – something he thought he would never be able to do. The first time he stood up without holding onto a walker, he started dancing. The entire therapy gym cheered with him and his spirits were high. He says now, “I have been given a second chance. Hospital for Special Care, is the best place to come.”

I have been given a second chance. Hospital for Special Care, is the best place to come.
