Mother of six from Colorado paralyzed in unexpected snowboarding incident
In a tragic snowboarding accident at Keystone last week, a woman from Castle Rock is now paralyzed from the neck down and reliant on life support. Sandra Prokofi, a dedicated snowboarder and mother of six, is described by her brother Robert as an extraordinary mom who goes above and beyond for her active children. Amidst her love for snowboarding and other outdoor activities, Sandra instilled this passion in her kids as well. Robert, who snowboards with his sister regularly, recounted the frightening moment when he received a call about Sandra's severe injury on the slopes. Despite wearing a helmet, she suffered a catastrophic spinal injury and is currently facing a long road to recovery. With a strong belief in Sandra's resilience and fighting spirit, her family is hopeful for her healing and has started an online fundraiser to support her rising medical expenses.
