Man takes first steps after self amputation in accident
The Associated Press
OKLAHOMA CITY — It was only six weeks ago that Donald Wyman cut off his left leg in a desperate effort to save his life. Yesterday, he walked without crutches for the first time since.
Wyman recalled that he used to be on the run from sunup to sundown, either driving a buildozer at the stripming company where he works or building his family a house.
But that all changed on July 20 when he went into the woods northeast of Pittsburgh to cut timber for the house. As he was collecting logs, an oak tree fell on his leg and smashed two bones.
Trapped and thinking he would bleed to death, the 37-year-old outdoorman was a tourniquet from a chainsaw cord and used a pocketkiffe to sever his leg below the knee.
On Monday, dressed in casual shorts, Wyman took his first steps on his new artificial leg.
"The walking part is kind of like being a child right now," he said. "I've done only just a few steps here and there before. I had become too dependent on the crutches."
He walked with him across the floor of one of the center's labs. On the second try, Wyman was eager to go it alone with only silent support from his wife, Janet, and son Brian.
John Sobolich, a certified prosthetist and president of the Sobolich Prosthetics and Research Center, helped Wyman fit into the $15,000 artificial limb, which was donated by the center.
Additional Watkins parking will aid in student service
Kansan staff writer
By Brian James
Watkins staff pharmacist Cathy Thrasher said students who drive to Watkins now must park in the northeast corner of Lot 90, the parking lot south of Robinson Center.
Students who need to make a stop at Watkins Memorial Health Center may be in and out a little bit ouiker.
Watkins is adding a new row of parking stalls on the south side of the building and expanding the existing staff parking lot on the east side of the health center, said Jim Boyle, associate director of Student Health Services at Watkins.
"I expect the new stalls will make things easier for people who just want to come in and pick up medicine, or especially for those people who need medical care." Thrasher said.
Doug Riat, construction administrator for Design Construction Management, said his company would complete the Watkins lots after it finished the construction behind Robinson in about mid-October.
Boyle said Watkins needed the additional parking because parking lots often were full on weekday afternoons.
"It's always a tight squeeze and sometimes a real mess," he said. "We think these lots will help improve our overall service."
The new parking row will consist of 12 metered stalls and three handicapped stalls. Eighteen new stalls will be added to the east parking lot.

Mark Warren gave the following account: Jason Carrier, Lawrence senior, Jason Jabara, Olathe senior, and Travis Jabara, Lenexa senior, were returning to their home at 1247 Kentucky St. They were crossing the street and a driver slammed on his brakes. The three men in the vehicle challenged the others to a fight following an argument. But Carrier, Swords and Jabara went into their home. They heard a loud noise but went to bed. In the morning, they found a hole in the wall and a piece of metal. Police were unable to confirm whether it was a bullet.
The men in the vehicle were described as three white males age 20 to 25. The vehicle was described as a 1990 to 1993 Ford Bronco or Explorer. It was described as tan or light colored on top and blue or dark on the bottom.
