Last fall, Denton firefighter Gary Weiland had to have his left leg amputated.
Doctors told Weiland that it take about a year, maybe even two, before he could return to active duty.
Well, it only took Weiland ten months.
Chief Kenneth Hedges of the Denton Fire Department said, "Gary, two days post-op of removing his leg, was already telling anyone who would visit him that he would make it back to full-duty, full-shift work, quicker than any person out there."
Weiland hopes his story inspires others. He said, "I'm a firefighter and I have a prosthetic leg, so if I can do that, the world is your oyster."
