On March 7, Savannah Romero was involved in a serious motorcycle crash that resulted in a coma

 

While Savannah, a Broncos fan, was a coma patient, she received a call from ex-Broncos and Colts quarterback Peyton Manning, which you can watch below. According to her husband Carlos, they spoke with Manning for 10 minutes.

 

A recent update on Savannah's GoFundMe page brings good news: She's no longer in a coma.

Thanks Bayone for posting and that doesn't surprise me at all coming from a super classy fellow.

Some of the comments at CBS Sports are horrid.

 

Peyton is a good man.

 I guess folks call him because they think he's inclined to do things like this. 

They know he wont ignore a request like this..

...Its almost like desperate people hoping for a miracle count on Peyton to be the kind of guy they

   heard he was.

 

I dont know if Peyton's voice helped wake that woman from that coma but his voice is so distinctive and she was a big Bronco fan. She would be familiar with it. I don't know it didn't.

The support of loved and revered ones is always as important as the treatments.  Well done Peyton.
