Eric Giguere was a laborer installing waterlines when the trench he was in collapsed on him. It took 10 minutes for rescue workers to get to him, and when they did, he was not breathing. “It is a miracle that I am alive today,” Eric says. In this session, he’ll describe the events leading up to his devastating incident, how it could have been prevented by following proper safety procedures, and the impact the incident has had on him and his family. An incident takes a second to happen – and a lifetime to overcome. You’ll hear about how the decisions we make can affect the rest of our lives.
