Taylor, a wealthy businessman, carried a deep distrust of doctors stemming from childhood trauma. His fear impacted every part of his life—he
refused medical help for his fainting wife, blocked hiring a nanny, and even stopped an ambulance during traffic, thinking it was cutting in line.
What he didn’t know: that ambulance was rushing to save his own son, Mark, who had suffered a serious head injury.
Taylor ignored repeated calls during a business meeting until a message broke through: “Mark is in the hospital.”
By the time he arrived at the ER, Mark was already in surgery. The ambulance driver had narrowly gotten him there in time—swerving
around Taylor’s SUV via the sidewalk. Overwhelmed by guilt, Taylor broke down, realizing his paranoia nearly cost his son’s life.
He later found James, the heroic ambulance driver, and tearfully thanked him. Upon learning James was struggling to pay for his wife’s surgery,
Taylor hired him as his personal driver at triple the pay. His wife, Helena, eventually became the nanny Taylor’s wife, Polly, had long needed.
The experience transformed Taylor. He began funding surgeries for children and always yielded to ambulances—his trauma replaced by purpose, compassion, and the will to protect others.
