ROCHESTER, Minn. - May is trauma awareness month. More people age 45 and younger die from injury or violence than any other cause of death.
Dr. Katie McKenzie, an Olmsted Medical Center primary care physician, and Dr. Kyle McKenzie of Mayo Clinic s Department of Community Internal Medicine, never expected one of their children to be on the receiving end of care for a serious injury. Dr. Katie McKenzie and their then 3-year-old daughter Evelyn were in a crash in 2019 when another car failed to yield at an intersection. The vehicle struck the rear passenger side, where Evelyn was sitting in her car seat. She wasn t conscious or breathing.
