Lonnie Quinn, CBS News New York's chief weathercaster, made a heartfelt return to the newsroom after recovering from a significant brain injury sustained earlier this year. His comeback was met with warm applause and hugs from his colleagues, expressing the deep connections he shares with his team. Quinn revealed the severity of his condition, initially thought to be a concussion, but further tests confirmed it as a traumatic brain injury, requiring several weeks of recovery. The support from his peers highlights the strong camaraderie at CBS News New York.
"I missed you guys more than you know," Quinn said when he returned. "It's these moments like this that just warms your heart and you think 'I work with good people.'"
"It was a very major head injury. Once the MRI came back, that's when the doctors came in and said 'Whoa, whoa, whoa. This is actually a traumatic brain injury, not just a concussion.'"
