J.J. Orsak was living a great life as he was married to his high school sweetheart, had a long time career as an electrician and celebrating a brand-new grandbaby in December 2018. But all of that changed in an instant on December 22. While doing a task he had done countless times, Mr. Orsak’s life changed. A jolt of electricity raced through his body and took both of his hands.
In this episode of the We’re Not Stumped podcast, recorded almost five years to the day of his accident, J.J. and his wife Sharon talk about his journey to again live a great life. His journey wasn’t without challenges, the first being life saving measures. But through it all and with his wife, family and friends by his side, J.J. is prospering again.
