Description
A Seattle man is fighting for his life in a hospital in Mexico and it all started with a swim.
“It's hard. Seeing your brother in the ICU hooked up, telling him you love him just in case," said Adam Griffis. "I would not wish that on anyone."
Griffis’s brother Evan is fighting for his life in a Puerto Vallarta hospital. The 30-year-old was swimming in the ocean Sunday when he was hit by a wave and broke his neck.
“It must be a fluke accident. a wave struck him from behind, and immediately thrust him to the seafloor, where he hit his head, fractured two vertebrae,” Griffis said.
Adam said his brother did not suffer brain damage and is able to understand what’s going on and being said to him.
