Albert’s Story

Albert Mendoza boarded a plane for Denver for a business meeting, but his plane was grounded by a frigid northerner with hurricane-force winds and negative-fifty degrees. He had made a friend with the steward, Allie. Allie would find his wrecked Jeep and save his life just minutes later. Albert was run into, and he lost the top of his Jeep and his own head. Before Albert could die, he was frozen along with the top of his head. In shock, Allie found his head and brought it back to him. Anne, a resident doctor at the local VA hospital, took the skull from Allie and put it back on the corpse. Except Albert wasn’t quite dead. His spinal cord reconnected ever so slightly.
