Impairment Details
Both of his arms were severed in a tractor accident in 2008 while harvesting peanuts with his family in Gaziantep, Turkey. He underwent surgery to reattach his arms. "They stitched my severed arms. I was in a coma for a while, but I could never use my arms fully again. I stayed in the hospital for three to four months after my surgery. I then had a few more operations and physical therapy. I couldn't walk for a long time because they had used tissue from my feet. I slept on my back for a year, and after two to three years I started walking again."
