McKENZIE — Misty Aird, head coach of the Bethel Ladies’ Soccer Team, spoke to the McKenzie Rotary Club about a tragic wreck on April 7, 2018 and her recovery after numerous surgeries.
The accident near Trenton claimed the lives of her two recently retired in-laws and critically injured her, the driver. Her daughter, Gracie, was uninjured.
Aird said she was rushed to a local hospital and airlifted to the trauma unit at The Med in Memphis. She was not expected to live and endured many surgeries and months of hospitalization and rehabilitation. She was certainly not expected to recover to the extent she has.
