Channel 11 was there as a long line of fire trucks and police cruisers made a welcome parade for Aubrey and neighbors cheered her on.
Aubrey’s prognosis was not good after the crash. She suffered a number of injuries including a fractured neck and brain bleed.
She defied expectations to make a “miraculous” recovery.

“The recovery has been very quick like I said, we went from not knowing she was ever going to survive, to not knowing if she was ever going to walk to 20 days later she’s walking and she’s coming home,” said Amy Hepak, Aubrey’s aunt.
Fundraising efforts are still going on for Aubrey and her mom.
A GoFundMe account has raised more than $170,000. Click here to donate.
A softball tournament is also scheduled for Sept. 14 and 15 at multiple locations.
