Mt. Morris Township, MI : EMT critically injured in a car crash on way to work in Genesee County on Sunday, Oct 25, 2015

An EMT/firefighter was critically hurt in a car crash on his way to work Sunday.

WJRT reported that Brian Bigelow, 22, swerved to miss a deer and suffered serious head injuries and was in a medically induced coma.

"His seat broke loose, his seat belt broke and he got knocked out," his mother, Jennifer, said.

Bigelow is not only an EMT and firefighter, but also serves in the National Guard.

"We basically have been waiting for, just expecting it, thinking it’s going to happen but not knowing exactly when it would," his sister, Shelby, said.

Bigelow is awake now and is most worried about getting back to work. Doctors expect his recovery to take months.

A fundraiser page has been set up to help with medical costs.
