Critical but stable condition

| horrible. Hope he is OK with. no permanent damage! |
| Critical but stable is code for serious brain injury. My prediction is that he will not be appearing in films again anytime soon, if ever. |

What is a snow plow? A truck with a snow pushing device at the front? A snow blower? A shovel?
Was he hit by a truck? Did his truck hit something? |
Did it flip? I wish him a speedy recovery but this sounds career ending serious. |
These pictures show his house being regularly snowed in and he usually personally plows a trail to his house to enter. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11591319/Jeremy-Renner-critical-stable-condition-following-weather-related-accident-plowing-snow.html |
Agree. Unfortunately, "stable" is misleading to most of us laypeople. Stable does not mean "doing OK," it only means "vital signs are steady and not getting any worse at this point." Critical but stable condition is still very grave, though the use of stable tends to make people think it's somehow less serious than just "critical." I'm truly sorry to hear about Renner's accident as I'm a fan of his MCU work. |
It is, in fact, not “grave.” That would be worse. |
But does not mean anything specific beyond that—could be blood loss, crush injuries, anything. |
He owns a couple of commercial size snowplows, there is a photo of him inside one of them and it still has the city logo from someplace in Idaho where the plow retired from. His place has a long road leading in and Tahoe often gets feet of snow at a time so he went all out. I suspect the accident involved some use of the equipment that wasn’t strictly safest conditions as men of all ilk are wont to do when playing with plows and trucks and other toys. Wishing him a speedy and full recovery but pragmatic about what his condition likely is. |
Sorry! You're right, "grave" is a term used medically and I wasn't using it that way above (and shouldn't have used it just there at all). I hope it doesn't get to "grave" for Renner but "stable" isn't great. |

It says that the snowplow ran over his leg, and he lost a tremendous amount of blood. |
|
Wow that’s awful. Very likely with such extensive blood loss he may have also suffered anoxic brain injury. Here’s hoping that is not the case and he recovers with an extensive care and therapy and goes on to show us that an amputee can still be a super hero.
Such a horrific experience for him and his family. |
It sounds like a horrible painful accident, but given that it was his leg (and apparently there was a doc on hand to apply a tourniquet), I think there is reason to hope the injuries are in fact not career-endingly "grave"... |
