A Long Island crossing guard who spent 101 days in the hospital after getting hit by a car is now home with his family.
Vazquez suffered a traumatic brain injury and was airlifted to North Shore University Hospital in critical condition. Eventually, he was transferred to Glen Cove Hospital for rehabilitation.
"Waking up was very lucky. I shouldn't have been here," he said."I miss watching the kids and seeing them every day and crossing with them. That's what I miss."Back in 1985, Vazquez was hit by a 40-ton truck. His left leg had to be amputated, and he received a prosthetic leg.
