A 30-year-old man, who miraculously survived a 244-day coma during which doctors wanted to harvest his organs, has now been killed by a pickup truck.
THE MIRACLE MAN
Drew Kohn was just days from his 23rd birthday in 2017 when he got into a motorcycle crash that sent him into a deep coma with a traumatic brain injury.
Miraculously, he woke up after eight months in a coma.
‘They would have harvested his organs,’ his mother, Yolanda Osborne-Kohn, told WTLV-TV News.
‘It was because of my faith that gave me the boldness to speak up and push back and let them know, ”You’re not getting a toenail or an eyelash.'”
She said her son was even brain-dead at one point, but she wouldn’t give up hope.
THE WAKE-UP
Drew was sent home, still in a coma — until his mom’s faith was miraculously rewarded.
He woke up one day and allegedly told his stunned mother, ‘Yeah, Mom, I’m OK. I love you, Mom.’
After years of gruelling rehab, Drew was dubbed a modern-day miracle when he began walking again.
HE MET HIS DEATH FINALLY
Sadly, he was killed on Friday, July 26, 2024, when a pickup truck hit him while he was walking on Collins Road in Jacksonville around 5:30 a.m., the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office said.
The driver, who told cops he hadn’t seen Drew, pulled over and called 911, but it was too late. He was pronounced dead at the scene, WLTV-TV said.
