DENVER — Denver Police officer John Adsit walked out of Porter Adventist Hospital and headed for home Wednesday.

Adsit had been hospitalized since Dec. 3 after being hit by a car during an East High School protest of the Ferguson, Mo., grand jury decision.

Adsit was moved to the rehabilitation center of the hospital on Friday after nearly two months in the hospital and a dozen surgeries.

A statement from the Adsit family read:

The family of Officer John Adsit is excited to share the incredible news that John is leaving the rehabilitation center today! After eleven weeks, it is a dream come true to know John is well enough to finally return home.

John’s recovery has been miraculous, and there is no doubt, God has a purpose for his life!

Officer John Adsit and his family are blessed by all of the tremendous support and are very grateful for all of the prayers as he continues his challenging rehabilitation process. The family is trusting God for a complete healing!

Adsit gave a statement before leaving the hospital and did not take questions:

Thank you all. I’d like to thank you all for your continued prayer and support during this difficult time. It’s overwhelming to me all the community support, just support from folks that I haven’t seen in a long time. I’m humbled by that support. But for the grace of God I wouldn’t be standing here today. And I’d like to praise Him for giving me the opportunity to spend some more time with my family here.

I don’t know what else to say. But I’m so excited to be leaving and going home to sleep in my own bed tonight. Thank you again for everything. God bless.

One last thing. I appreciate all the blue lights that have been on for this period of time. I don’t know if I could ask if you could leave them on for one more night so I could see them when I go home. Again, thank you all for everything.

The GoFundMe page that was set up for his family to pay for medical bills has raised over $75,000 since it was created on Dec. 4.
