Trinity Richard’s recovery has been a series of ups and downs. On Thursday, the 16-year-old sat up in a chair and ordered a coffee. Her mother says her spirits are good, and her personality is intact, but there is a long road of recovery ahead. More:
“We immediately started praying for a miracle because it was clear from Lake Martin Hospital that nothing short of a miracle would bring her back and just keep her live, let alone getting her to talking and having any kind of hope for a normal life,’’ Richards said.“You know when somebody gets shot in the head that is largely fatal,’’ Richards said. “I was like my baby is gone.”
“We got here about 2 a.m. and the prognosis was not good,’’ Richards said. “But they said clearly from Day 1 they did not know. And when you don’t know, for me, that gives God room to do what only God can do and that is provide miracles.” “And I started thinking about that and I said, ‘Is that fair to Trinity? What if she couldn’t walk, what if she couldn’t talk, what if she was a vegetable because at some point that was on the table too.”“They would come in and see Trinity doing these things,’’ she said. “They would be smiling and so proud and so surprised at her progress and then you knew they were really buying in.”
“The next day we heard Trinity’s voice. It was childlike and airy because she had the trach,’’ Richards said. “She started talking above the trach. And making sense. And making jokes. And remembering things. And connecting things.” “I can’t imagine what they were thinking to open fire in a room where it seems you could literally see everybody at the same time.”
