Joey Ortiz was a rising football star. The University of Nevada Las Vegas listed Ortiz as their number 1 recruit. Everything was looking up for Ortiz then suddenly it came crashing down. After an evening of partying, a vehicle traveling at speeds up to 70 miles per hour crashed into Ortiz in a near-fatal pedestrian hit-and-run accident. The force of the car sent him 75 feet down the road. Left for dead in the street, he laid helplessly on the ground. The paramedic had to revive him as he was unresponsive from his head injury. The hit-and-run car accident left him with a cracked cranium, bruised brain, knocked out several teeth, separated shoulder, fractured wrist, broken ribs, broker bladder, bruised kidneys, broken pelvis, broken leg, cracked kneecap, torn PCL, torn miniscus and broken and dislocated ankle. He was in a coma for three days. When he awoke, to his devastation, the doctor informed him that he would never play football again. His life was over.
