His personal retelling of his escape and survival was when the first wave of Infected started gnawing on the rest of his family he took the few who remained and started fleeing north (under his eldest cousin's idea that the infected were cold blooded and would freeze in the winter and would be weaker in the short summers). His cousin was wrong and by the time they reached the canadian border only he and one other cousin were still alive (he refuses to speak of her). After a span of three additonal years he became the sole survivor of his "family" and decided to scrape a living back south. (He kept all his fallen familie's weapons but refuses to use them)
