In the early hours of January 18th, Mitch was on his way home from a concert on an e-scooter when he was struck by an impaired driver. He sustained compound fractures in his lower leg and the majority of the impact was to his head. 

So far, he has gotten brain surgery to relieve swelling and leg surgery to repair the fractures. He will need additional surgeries to both areas. 

He has a long road to recovery, and we appreciate your support along the way. He was being cared for at Legacy Emanuel Hospital in the neurotrauma ICU in Portland, Oregon and was transferred to the TRACU (trauma recovery acute care unit) on 1/25. 

His parents Michele and Jeff and his partner Ellie spend every day with him at the hospital and post updates on his CaringBridge.

We appreciate any support you can give us at this time, and anything you can give to help support his care.
