Twenty-one-year-old meningitis survivor Carl Buher is speaking out about vaccination awareness. 'Good Morning America' correspondent Neal Karlinsky follows the cautionary tale of this college-aged survivor who nearly lost his life to a preventable disease. "I've had three fingers amputated. I've had both of my feet amputated above the ankle. I've had extensive skin grafts all over my body," Buher explains.

"It was the day after a football game when he felt what seemed like a bad cold or flu coming on," Karlinsky reports, "Within hours he was covered in a strange rash and getting worse." Buher was airlifted to a hospital where a spinal tap confirmed that he'd contracted bacterial Meningitis. "My heart stopped three times on the helicopter," Buher explains. He is working to raise vaccination awareness among the parents of young adults. While painful, Buher says his bout with meningitis "made me a better person."
