- Jeremy Renner shared a message from his nephew as the actor recovers from a snowplow accident.
- In the note, Renner's nephew Auggie wrote that he is "lucky that my uncle is alive."
Jeremy Renner shared a heartwarming message from his nephew Auggie to his Instagram account on Thursday, as the actor continues to recover following a brutal accident earlier this year.
In the handwritten note, Auggie wrote: "I am very lucky because my uncle is hawk-eye (witch is 1 of the Avengers). I am also very lucky that my uncle is alive from his accident."
"Love my little man," Renner wrote in his Instagram Story of the note, adding: "Bless you Auggie."
The "Hawkeye" actor also included a photo of two stuffed sloths hugging each other in his Instagram story shortly thereafter, captioning the photo: "My inside feelings."
Renner was hospitalized in January after his snowcat rolled over him while he was helping a stranded motorist remove their vehicle from the snow. The actor suffered blunt chest trauma and orthopedic injuries and was airlifted to a local hospital shortly thereafter.
In an update shared with Instagram followers in late January, Renner revealed that he broke dozens of bones in the accident.
"Morning workouts, resolutions all changed this particular new years ... Spawned from tragedy for my entire family, and quickly focused into uniting actionable love. I want to thank EVERYONE for their messages and thoughtfulness for my family and I ... Much love and appreciation to you all," he wrote at the time.
Renner added in the post: "These 30 plus broken bones will mend, grow stronger, just like the love and bond with family and friends deepens. Love and blessings to you all."
