Victim of drunk driving accident in Pensacola walks again after 19 months of recovery
SUMMARY: Erica Brigman, a victim of a drunk driving accident in Pensacola, has made a miraculous recovery after nearly 19 months. The incident occurred in July 2023 when Brigman was struck head-on while trying to enter a parking lot, resulting in severe injuries, including broken bones and major spinal damage. Despite the grim prognosis from a doctor who had never seen anyone survive such internal injuries, Brigman defied the odds. With unwavering support from her friend Anna Lewis, she has now regained the ability to walk unaided, a milestone she once thought impossible during her hospital stay.
