For Mikael Anderson, the journey to the 25th floor begins one step at a time. In December, he couldn't walk at all after an ATV crash on his Houston-area ranch.Anderson woke up in pain in a hospital bed. He discovered that a spinal cord injury left him partially paralyzed. He could feel his legs but could not use them.
"He’s really never told me no. He pushes each and every day. I ask him; I put hard challenges before him," says Michelle Sauer, Anderson’s primary physical therapy doctor at TIRR/ Memorial Hermann. "The day after his accident, the first thing Mikael said that was reported to me [was] ‘whatever you do, be sure and get that Esperson transaction done," says business partener and co-owner Dougal Cameron of Cameron Management.Before the ink dried on the co-ownership deal, Anderson had thought up a new challenge: climb the building's 30 flights of stairs to mark his speedy recovery.
"This is what this building is about, really unusual entrepreneurial, hard-working of things, persevering kind of things," adds Cameron. "There’s a lot of Viking in this guy; he may be all Viking!"
