I’m a TBI/SCI survivor and I am so stoked for this young man! I would love to teach him everything I have learned over 24 years of physical therapy and memory strategies and the post traumatic stress injury from the brain bleeds. I was a lifeguard and a medic and I fully understand his tenacity and his desire to return to work and I am so grateful and proud of him for doing the work to make it happen ❤❤❤ Miracles rock. Think of how devastating that crash was and how much we all prayed for him and held him in our hearts and minds. Let’s keep him in our thoughts.

Even those of us who don't pray were praying for you! So glad to see you able to not only walk but WORK again? Many more blessings to you!

Prayer's up Martinez. Great man for getting back into the fight. Losing friends isnt easy. Spiritually, you have to heal. Dont rush back. Take your time. 🙏🏾 . God Bless.

“I’m not gonna quit, I’m gonna push through….” “Officer Machitar made me who I am, I can’t let him down until I retire” says Officer Martinez.

This is a great story. Zachary will do great things going forward, I predict. He has a new lease on life.

That is wonderful news! I'm so glad to hear that you are doing well. ❤

[@glenclarkchidley3637]

So the other dude didn’t pray enough? Absolute ridiculous nonsense!

[@samanthakhatib4626]

I am not sure if we can be grateful or worried that this officer is coming with a vengeance set of mind and now every civilian is at risk of a uncertain outcome if an interaction with this officer occurs.

[@iFriendofYours]

What was your gut feeling, you know, without testing or mental evaluations or working closely with him?

[@jambony_255k]

❤

[@teorodriguezjr6613]

They're not sending us their best

[@ocularpressure4558]

[@baddd_dogggie]

The Lord apparently has blessed this guy but the Lord apparently really had it out for his partner

[@edyann]

Right! That was going to be my comment! So glad he's well today... but then why was the other one not lucky? Life is so unfair...

And how about the 16 year old boy that died in their high speed pursuit on a city street for a Misdemeanor.
