~Emily Krieghoff was the only one to survive in the car driven by her best friend, Molly Griffin, after it was hit by a suspected drunk driver, two weekends ago (2/21/2015).
Today, the 23-year-old is finally out of the Intensive Care Unit at Community Regional Medical Center in Fresno (3/2/2015).
Her aunt, Mary Beth Blasco, has been in town from Southern California, sitting at her niece's bedside.
She has a message of thanks to all the caregivers: "The first responders, the hospital, the trauma, the surgeons, without their expertise we would not have Emily with us today, and that is the truth."
Emily's aunt, Mary Beth Blasco, asks that people pray for her niece.
Blasco's other message – Please don't ever drive drunk.
Blasco has also set up a fund for Emily's mounting medical bills.
