A Texas man survived a nearly fatal car accident Tuesday that left a pole in his chest and has begun his long road to recovery, according to his family.
Mark Tabor told "Good Morning America" he considered his son Jake Tabor "a miracle baby," after the 25-year-old father of two came out of the car crash on Highway 75 near Shepard Hill Road alive. Jake Tabor, a pipefitter, dodged a deer, veered off the road and crashed into a metal fence, according to his father and the police.
Mark Tabor said his son called him after getting off the phone with 911 operators to tell him he was impaled by a fence pole and was likely not going to make it.
"He wanted to tell us ... that he loved us, and he wanted his girls to know that he loved them very much," Mark Tabor told "GMA."
