The Herald News

Kelly Craig and her brother, Jason, were on a family vacation in Colorado in July of 1999 when the car they were riding in was struck by a drunken driver. Kelly, an Indiana University cheerleader, was left paralyzed from the chest down. Jason, a standout on his high school football team, sustained a closed-head injury and spent most of the next year waking form a coma. This is their first year since the accident. A year later, Kelly and Jason, were together in therapy to try and regain lost motor skills. She is paralyzed while he is recovering from a closed-head injury.
