Ep. 47: I'm Half the Man I Used to Be
At 19 years old, Loren Schauers made a choice most of us will never have to face.
This week, Andrea and Crystal cover the story of a young man whose ordinary workday on a bridge construction site turned into a fight to survive an accident that should have killed him instantly. We break down the injuries, the split-second decisions that saved his life, and the radical surgery that let him keep living, even after losing half his body. It's a story about the limits of the human body, and what it takes to keep going when everything changes in an instant.
