EVERETT, Wash. (AP) — A Boeing worker who was crushed in a 747 wing spoiler March 19 at Boeing Field says he doesn’t recall the accident and what happened to him for two days before he woke up in a hospital.

Stan Sprague suffered no broken bones but his lungs were damaged and he spent nearly two weeks on a breathing machine.

The 35-year-old was able to return Thursday to his home in Lake Stevens where he continues to recover.

The Daily Herald reports (http://is.gd/GGCqNR ) Sprague hopes to return to work in about a month.
