Dr Gary Wood was 18-years-old when he and his sister were involved in a serious car crash.
Dr Wood and his then 16-year-old sister Sue were travelling home when he crashed the car into an illegally parked vehicle.
While the Sue left the crash relatively unscathed, Gary suffered potentially life-ending injuries, including a crushed larynx and vocal chords, as well has having his nose ripped off and several broken bones.
The injuries were so severe that when paramedics arrived, Dr Wood was pronounced dead at the scene.
