Unbelievably, Stafon Johnson's tragic throat injury was one month ago today.
But his progress and recovery since the weightlifting accident might be even more incredible.
In the last 30 days, Johnson has undergone several major reconstructive surgeries, been released from the hospital, joined Twitter, attended a team meeting by surprise and even gone to the Oregon State game at the Coliseum last weekend.
While complete recovery is still some time from now, Johnson's continued progress and positive attitude has made the last month uplifting, inspiring and encouraging for his family, friends, fans and teammates.
"We are fighting on!" Kim Mallory, Johnson's mother, said today.
