(Cast Net) – A South Okanagan teen is facing a long battle to health after a horrific ski accident at Apex Mountain. Fourteen-year-old Connell Hall was enjoying the mountain with friends on Saturday when his world, and the worlds of those who love him, turned upside down.
“I guess just icy conditions, he wiped out, and he ended up with three separate injuries. One, he broke his left femur in half. He broke his right wrist, and the worst part is that he has three separate brain bleeds and a swollen brain,” his father, Sean Hall, told Castanet Monday. “So he incurred a traumatic brain injury that we’re trying to work our way through.” CONTINUE
