A phone call to a wrong number in Nebraska revealed what a suffering man needed: a walk to the hospital.
Lisa Nagengast said that a sandwich maker from Jimmy John had rescued her brother, Greg Holeman, on Saturday night, after calling upon arrival at the Tampa, Florida airport. She had gone to Nebraska to help Holeman travel to his home in Columbus after the spinal fusion operation three days earlier in Omaha. He called her in great pain and said that he was leaking blood and that his left leg had become numb, said Nagengast.
His brother is a disabled veteran and did not get approval from the Department of Veterans Affairs to call an ambulance, she said. He could not afford a taxi either to go to the hospital, she said.

Nagengast was still at the Tampa airport when she tried to call her VA social assistant, but she was misunderstood and reached a figure that turned out to be the correct number : Jimmy John's in Columbus and his night manager, Jason Voss. She explained her problem.
"She was a little panicky," Voss told the Omaha World-Herald on Tuesday. "At that time, I thought I should take a minute to think about it.It was obviously not someone who was making something; it was a real situation that happened."
Nagengast took a little time to understand that she had not joined her brother's social worker.
"I apologized to the excess, I was really embarrassed," she told the Columbus Telegram. "I just told them:" It does not matter. "But one way or another, they found in their hearts a help."
Voss called delivery driver Zach Hillmer, who took Holeman and drove him to an emergency room at the hospital. Hillmer, a veteran of the US Navy, said it was a privilege to help another military.

Sam Nixon, Jimmy John's operating partner from Columbus, said he is proud.
"These guys did it on their own, and that's what was so special about it," Nixon said.
Nagengast said that his brother was back home and that everything was fine.
