CLEVELAND If you went down to Voinovich Park on Aug. 25 for the FOX 8 FOX Trot or were a part of it in any way, you made a big difference in the lives of patients and families dealing with brain injuries.

On Friday, we learned just how big of an impact.

During Fox 8 News in the Morning, Fox 8s own Stefani Schaefer presented a check for $33,000 to The MetroHealth Foundations Brain Injury Program.

It will be used to buy new equipment and enhance technology used on the unit, a place where miracles are said to happen.

We have to reset broken lives again, said Dr. James Begley, who accepted the check.

Schaefer has seen some of those miracles with her own eyes.

Her husband, Roger, received extensive treatment at Metro after he took a fall off scaffolding at a construction site in April 2012.

The final numbers on the FOX Trot attendance were also released Friday.

A total of 2,645 people participated, with 1,182 walkers and 1,463 running the 5K.
