“To sum it up, I lost half a leg on one side and one leg on the other. “One hand is assembled, one eye is no longer working and my hearing is quite excited; but overall I feel very lucky to be here – and the people who brought me here are amazing!” Hall tweeted with a photo of himself Thursday afternoon. Hall wore an eyepiece to his left eye as he smiled from the hospital bed. Hall was traveling in a vehicle March 14 with cameraman and friend Pierre Zakrzewski, 55, and a Ukrainian fashion journalist Oleksandra Kuvshynova, 24, when Russian troops opened fire on the car. Fox News confirmed that Zakrzewski and Kuvshynova had died from their injuries.
