After my accident I made a surprisingly swift recovery, the story of which has been described by many as inspirational. Within three and a half months I had learnt to walk on prosthetic legs and had sufficiently re-learnt everday tasks such as washing, dressing and feeding to be able to leave hospital.  

Immediately I returned to full time work as a manager for the same rope access company I had worked for before and was soon considered a valuable and fully productive member of the management team. In June 2000 my long term partner, Anna Wyatt and I were married.
