Isaiah was airlifted to Sunnybrook Hospital in Toronto. For several weeks, he was in a coma and no one was sure if he would survive.

His mom told him he needed to fight as hard as he possibly could to live.

Fight Isaiah did, taking small steps along the way on his road to recovery—showing his family and friends and caregivers many miracles along the way.

And being able to visit home for Christmas...

And saying his first word since the accident, "Addy", his sister's name...

Despite setbacks along the way, Isaiah is fighting his way back to some semblance of normalcy.

Including shooting hoops...

And holding hands with his sister, while walking again...

And... well... watch this amazing video called "Isaiah's Journey" below posted to YouTube—narrated by Isaiah's mom—that documents his journey back home...

Isaiah had gotten off the city bus and was crossing the road when he got hit by a truck. He was airlifted to Sunnybrook Health Sciences Center. As soon as he got there he had his spleen removed. He spent the next 3 weeks in a coma.

Hallelujah.
