Paramedic injured in head-on crash reflects on recovery

[KMSP Fox 9, January 01, 0001] On Jan. 18, Allina Health EMS paramedic Brian Nagel suffered a broken neck, a fractured skull, a head injury and doctors had to reconstruct his eye, the result of a head-on crash that also severely injured his Allina partner Tim Daly. Just one month later, he left the hospital on his sister's birthday -- and his recovery is impressive.

Although Nagel is back at home, he still has weeks of healing ahead of him -- but his attitude has him exploring the road to recovery with a smile.
