August Borden's Condition and Recovery

• 💔 August Borden, a 15-year-old football player, is on a long road to recovery after sustaining severe injuries, including a concussion, orbital fractures, and a skull fracture.
• 🏥 He has been released from the hospital, is able to walk and talk, but faces months of specialist appointments for both physical and mental recovery.
• 🏈 Tragically, August will never play another contact sport again, a devastating loss of his dream.
• ⚠️ A shocking new detail revealed is that August technically died for a period after losing his pulse, a fact not initially disclosed to his family.

Discrepancies in the Official Narrative

• 🤥 The medical report indicated that school staff told paramedics August had been acting strange and throwing up all day, which the family states is untrue.

Investigation and Jurisdictional Changes
