Michael Cook

Michael Cook is the fiancé of Tess.

History
Michael was rock climbing with his fiancée, Tess, when Tess fell over a hundred feet, injuring herself. She was rushed to the ER, where they diagnosed several fractures as well as internal injuries. She was rushed into surgery, where they had to remove a portion of her intestine. However, before her surgery could be completed, she had signs that there was no brain activity. Michael believed she wouldn't want to live like that, but her parents wanted the doctors to do whatever they could to keep her alive. They were given pamphlets for several long-term care facilities.

Romantic
He is engaged to Tess. They were scheduled to get married two months before her accident.
