Jeremy Renner has revealed an extensive list of therapies that he is currently going through to recover from his near-fatal snowplough accident on New Year's Day.
Ten months ago, the Marvel star was struck by a snowplough in an effort to save his nephew from harm, giving him critical injuries to his chest and legs. He was airlifted to a local hospital near Washoe Country, Nevada and thereafter his representatives confirmed that he was in a stable but critical condition.
Just a couple of days later, Renner posted an image of himself in hospital on Instagram while also thanking fans for their support. Two weeks after that, he was released home to continue his recovery and he later revealed that the accident broke 30 bones in his body.
He has been using Instagram to keep fans updated on his recovery, and his latest entry detailed some of his therapies.
“I have been exploring EVERY type of therapy since Jan 14th,” he wrote. “Every day, countless hours of physical therapy, peptide injections, IV drips and pushes, stem cell and exosomes, red light / IR therapy, hyperbaric chamber 2.0 atmospheres, cold plunge, and the list goes on and on.”
“But My greatest therapy has been my mind and the will to be here and push to recover and be better. Be exceptional…I feel it’s my duty to do so. Not to squander my life being spared, but to give back to my family, friends, and all of you whom have empowered me to endure. I thank you all.”
Renner also recently revealed that he is making music inspired by the incident.
"A collection of music we wrote about different milestones in my journey of recovery since Jan 1st this year. Love and Titanium has been painful, deeply healing, and ultimately cathartic for me to create," he shared on social media. "I hope I get the courage to share with you all."
Renner's list of injuries
In a previous interview with Diane Sawyer for Disney+, the host listed the injuries that Renner suffered in the accident:
"Eight ribs broken in 14 places, right knee and right ankle broken, left leg tibia broken, left ankle broken, right clavicle broken, right shoulder broken, socket broken, the jaw and the mandible broken, a lung collapsed and pierced from the rib bone - your liver."
Renner, who is emotional at parts of the interview, insists he would do it all over again if it meant saving the life of his nephew.
