Jeremy Renner celebrated his 52nd birthday, which was on January 7, with a warm thank you message to the medical team who are treating him. The actor continues to recover from injuries sustained in a snowplow accident.
Jeremy Renner shared an update from the ICU on Friday January 6th.
“Thank you glorious people for starting this journey,” Renner captioned a photo of himself in a hospital bed surrounded by medical professionals.
The late Friday post is the third piece of information Renner has shared since being hospitalized. He underwent two surgeries for a chest injury and sustained orthopedic injuries after being hit by a snowplow on New Year’s Day near his Nevada home. The Marvel star was shoveling snow from her driveway when the accident happened, her publicist told CNN.
Renner also shared a short video of his fans dancing to 50 Cent’s “In Da Club” to wish him a happy birthday, and thanked them for their “love.”
Many other actors also sent birthday wishes to Renner. “Happy birthday to one of the toughest guys I know,” Chris Evans wrote in his Instagram story with a photo of Renner.
Washoe County Sheriff Darrin Balaam said in a news conference Tuesday that Renner’s snowmobile, a motorized machine used for snow removal, began rolling while Renner was not in the driver’s seat. He was injured trying to get back into the car, Balaam said. Some of Renner’s family members were with him when it happened.
