  • He was injured on the job, so I should hope he would be taken care of with health insurance and special needs he might have now through disability type insurance through his work. Its amazing that he lived. This one was intense and hard to watch, but inspiring.

  • such a shame about this guy i feel soo sorry !

  • If he's alive he'd be 50 years old. I hope he's doing OK...

  • You know, even though Tom was seriously injured on the job, I am sure he felt proud of himself that he at least tried to help somebody in trouble and I am sure his friends and family were proud of him too.

  • Tom's a damn strong mofo. Thumbs up if you love & respect the heck out of him and his attitude

  • @sn1pe352 Too bad FDA stands in the way, even if patients are willing. Damn fascist bureaucracy.

  • Damn!

  • So tragic. What a true hero. I remember seeing this as a little kid when my dad and I watched this each week, it bothers me more now that I can better understand him giving everything for another person. Incredibly selfless, thank you Tom.

  • @jlrsmiles nope sure didnt

  • is he still alive today right on this date?

  • @sn1pe352 i support this.

  • Did he die?
