Former NFL player Peyton Hillis has been discharged from a Florida hospital, where he spent weeks in intensive care after saving his children from drowning in a lake, his girlfriend and sister said on social media.
"God is so good!" wrote Angela Cole, Hillis' girlfriend, on Instagram Saturday, captioning a photo that appeared to have been taken inside a room at Baptist Hospital in Pensacola. In it, Cole and Hillis are smiling and surrounded by a medical care team.
"Peyton has been discharged from the hospital," Cole wrote. "The amount of love and gratitude I have for the incredible team that took care of Peyton is indescribable. This picture does not have anywhere near the amount of people who took such great care of him."

Another winter storm may be headed toward the East Coast of the United States this weekend, on the heels of a powerful and deadly system that blanketed huge swaths of the country in snow and ice. The effects of that original storm have lingered for many areas in its path, and will likely remain as repeated bouts of Arctic air plunge downward from Canada and drive temperatures below freezing.
