It’s been nearly six months since a driver going the wrong way on Interstate 70 killing Jenny Trover and leaving her son with potential life-long injuries.

Nine-month-old Alex Steele spent months in the hospital recovering from the crash that left him with what doctors compare to Shaken Baby Syndrome. The once healthy baby boy now has seizures almost daily and the impact damaged his optic nerve leaving him with Cortical Blindness. A condition that doctors say may never go away. Mary Noose, Jenny’s mother and Alex’s grandmother says “ it's going to be a waiting game because doctors can't heal this child, only God can heal this child.”

The rest of Jenny's family say that her death has left hole's in their hearts and they hope that they can heal along with baby Alex.
