A teen girl who was pronounced dead in a crash in Myrtle Beach last month has been discharged from the hospital.
Grayson Hucks was in a 6-vehicle crash on an afternoon exactly a month ago Wednesday and was pronounced dead in the crash, officials initially said.
Hucks, age 19, was just accepted to begin nursing school in the fall at a SC college — and was on her way home from a medical assistant summer job when the wreck happened.
Hucks, whose car was hit head-on while traveling on the US 17 Bypass, spent more than 3 weeks in the hospital and was released just this week from an Atlanta hospital.
In the crash, Hucks suffered a fractured left ulna, a fractured right patella and right tibia, and a fractured sacrum.
“Among other complications, Grayson is also fighting a head injury consisting of multiple pinpoint bleeding and a hematoma on her right parietal lobe, as well as pneumonia caused by the trauma,” her boyfriend, Dustin James wrote on a GoFundMe page.
James said that Hucks will be undergoing out-patient therapy in Florence, SC.
