Jacob Oldefest was hit by a suspected DUI driver while riding his bike home from work. Just a block away, his co-workers were responding to another call at the same time.
"It is incredible to be able to go to work every day and you don't know where you're gonna go, you don't know what you’re gonna do, you don't know how you're gonna help people," he told Denver7.Oldefest was riding his bike home after work late Wednesday night when he was struck by a suspected drunk driver in the area of Sherman Street and Colfax Avenue.
Oldefest suffered internal injuries, and his femur was broken in three pieces. He has been recovering at his mother's house ever since. The paramedic told Denver7 it'll probably be a few months before he's able to return to work. "Denver Health is a fantastic hospital, and the doctors and nurses and techs and all the support staff there do an incredible amount of work for the people they care for. It certainly reinforced how much I knew already, how good they are at their jobs," he added."Through this whole thing, like, I've never once not felt like immensely loved and supported by everybody."
