On December 21st of last year Frank Salazar was working inside of a building on a ladder. The ladder was only up about two feet but it started to slide and his foot got stuck between the first and second step, causing his right leg to bend to a 90 degree angle. When he got to the hospital, doctors said that Frank had suffered serious vascular damage, which prohibited blood flow in his body. He was told he was going to lose his leg. Dr. Aleem Mirza, a vascular surgeon with Memorial Hermann, was able to restore blood flow to his leg and save it. Francisco recently started walking again and he’s extremely grateful.
