Vancouver firefighter Christopher Won said he is just feeling lucky to be alive after a devastating diagnosis on his vacation forced the amputation of his lower leg.

"“I’m thankful to have my life. It’s a small sacrifice, leg for a life, with my family for the rest of my life."

Won contracted necrotizing fasciitis, a rare, life-threatening disease, while travelling with his family in Asia.

Global's Jason Pires reports.
