A Seattle man is fighting for his life in Mexico after a freak accident out in the ocean. The family of Evan Griffis tells KIRO7 he was down in Puerto Vallarta recently celebrating and enjoying several pride events. He was out in the ocean at a nearby beach Sunday afternoon with several friends when he was knocked over by a large wave. Doctors told the Griffis family Evan is paralyzed from the sternum down. “And unfortunately, my brother was struck by a wave from behind when he was exiting the ocean. And that wave threw him straight into the sandy ocean where he broke his neck,” Adam Griffis, his younger brother, said. Adam says Evan went through an 11 hour spinal surgery on the front and back side of his neck. He says his brother has had signs of improvement as well and that he was able to lift up his arms recently; however, he says his brother is currently battling pneumonia. “Evan required not only a food tube connected straight into his stomach, but a tracheostomy to assist with his breathing,” Griffis said.
