The mother of four will have both feet amputated as a result of her injuries, the woman’s family said Monday. Kristin Hopkins, a 43-year-old single mother of four from Highlands Ranch, Colo., was in critical but stable condition Monday night at St. Anthony Hospital in Lakewood, Colo. 
 
 Hopkins was reported missing April 29 and found inside her wrecked Chevrolet Malibu Sunday afternoon in Park County, Colo., at the bottom of an embankment off a highway, according to authorities. Her car, turned upside down, was spotted by a passerby who had stopped to view scenery and noticed a glint of metal and what looked like a body, authorities said. That Hopkins is alive at all is considered a miracle by her rescuers, who thought the woman was dead when they arrived around 2 p.m. Sunday. KDVR Hopkins appears to have spun off the road and rolled several times before crashing upside down.
– A Colorado woman who survived for days in an overturned car was rescued Sunday, but had to have her feet amputated yesterday, USA Today reports. Kristin Hopkins, 43, a single mother of four, was driving at night when she crashed about 140 feet from a scenic highway. Her Chevrolet Malibu likely went airborne, hit several trees, and rolled down a steep embankment before stopping in a grove of aspen trees, a patrol officer told Reuters. Stuck in the car, she reportedly wrote notes on a red and white umbrella and tried using it to flag down passersby. Her notes were hard to read, but seemed to say "Please help doors won't open," "Please help, bleeding, need a doctor," and "Six days, no food, no water, please help," said firefighter Jim Cravener. A man who stopped to shoot pictures spotted the car, walked down to it, and reported finding a body inside. Firefighters came and were about to smash a window when Hopkins put a hand against the glass. "It’s really something off that Shouldn’t Be Alive show," Cravener told the Daily News. "She really had a strong will to survive." Hopkins is in critical but stable condition, and doctors expect her to live.
