A flight nurse, he was burned over 90 percent of his body three years ago when the medical helicopter he was riding in crashed shortly after takeoff from St. Anthony Summit Medical Center in Frisco. Within hours, doctors told his wife Amanda there was virtually no chance he would survive. But he walked out of the hospital 13 months later.
