Two members of the Putman television family appear to be facing lengthy recoveries following a devastating car crash… however, three others have already left the hospital.
The latest update on the family’s Instagram page reveals that doctors are working hard to keep Gia stable, and she has even had her chest tube taken out.
Noah is currently in rehab, where he’s been seen walking and dribbling a ball during his occupational therapy sessions. The family emphasizes that his primary focus for recovery is cognitive therapy.
In positive news, Uncle Blake, Luli, and Alena have all been discharged from the hospital and are reported to be “doing well.”
The family continues to solicit prayers for both Gia and Noah.
As previously reported, three family members lost their lives last Friday in a car accident in Tuscola County, Michigan. The deceased include Bill Putman, his spouse Barb, and their daughter-in-law, Megan.
The Putman family gained fame through TLC’s “Meet the Putmans,” showcasing the lives of Bill and Barb Putman along with their four children and their families cohabitating in an enormous 35,000-square-foot home.
“Meet the Putmans” made a return on YouTube in 2021 as “Growing Up Putman,” although there haven’t been any new episodes in a long while.
