Jeremy Renner returned to the hospital to visit the medical workers who treated him after his devastating snow plow accident in January.
On Friday, the 52-year-old actor shared photos on his Instagram story of him spending time with hospital staff at Renown Regional Medical Center in Reno, Nevada. One image showed the Marvel star smiling and leaning on his cane as he posed with 12 staff members.
“I need to revisit the amazing group of people who saved my life,” the Marvel star captioned the photo, adding several heart and prayer hand emojis.

JEREMY RENNER FEARS THAT AFTER AN ACCIDENT HE WILL BECOME A ‘SCIENTIFIC EXPERIMENT’: ‘HOW WILL MY EXISTENCE BE?’
On New Year’s Day, Renner broke more than 30 bones when he was crushed by a 14,000-pound Pistenbully near his home in the Lake Tahoe area.
He was airlifted to Renown Regional Hospital, where he remained for more than two weeks while undergoing multiple surgeries for blunt chest trauma and other orthopedic injuries.
For the past four months, Renner has been updating his fans on his journey to recovery. Last month, he shared a video in which he was seen using an anti-gravity treadmill for the first time since the near-fatal accident.

Renner was accompanied by his 10-year-old daughter Ava as they walked hand in hand across the carpet. During a panel discussion following the screening of the first episode, host Jimmy Kimmel asked Renner about the accident and his recovery.
Kimmel told the actor that if he had been in his position he would complain constantly and “never get out of bed”, but that his recovery has been “remarkable”.

“It’s easy to do when you have the love and support that I have,” Renner replied. “It would have been impossible to do it alone. A lot of people, some of them here, have saved part of my life and kept me alive to breathe and carry on.”

“It took a lot of people,” he continued. “It starts with my family, my daughter, then a big part of my recovery was this show, it was a big milestone for me to get better, to make sure all our hard work wasn’t in vain… For me to my goddamn self about, well, there’s no alternative.”
He continued, “It was easy for me, I had somewhere to go, somewhere to point to, and I had a lot of love, man.”
