It was a beautiful day. A beautiful day for a walk. A beautiful day for pickleball. A beautiful day to take the afternoon off work.
Listen as this multi-generational townie and all around nice guy talks about the day he was hit by a car, the injuries sustained, the recovery, the stranger that held his hand, the EMTs who came to his side and called his firefighter son, the consequences for the under-the-influence driver, the PTSD that follows, the bracelet that everyone should have and the interesting way your personality sustains itself even in these traumatic situations and the worst parking lots in Champaign-Urbana! He has persevered through business wins and losses, career changes and is the king of reinvention. He will persevere through this life altering event, too.

Emily Harrington, here! Mom, wife, retired communications liaison and host of the HyperLocal(s) Podcast. Each week I bring you a pod where townies and transplants share their tales of tears and triumphs, losses and wins. In an effort to provide a way for those that don’t want a public podcast, but still have a story to tell friends and family, I’ve created, In Retrospect: A HyperLocal(s) Project, a private podcast.
