Man dies after catching on fire at Tennessee hospital [View all]

A Middle Tennessee woman became a widow on Thanksgiving after she says her husband caught fire while being treated at TriStar Centennial Medical Center.

Kathy Stark has been by her husband’s side for the past 35 years, through sickness and in health. She said Bobby Ray was bedridden for the last seven years, and earlier this month, went to the hospital for bed sores and a foot infection.

Eventually, he was transferred to TriStar Centennial, where Kathy said he coded and staff tried to revive him.

“Then they started the paddles, and it just blew up, everything,” Kathy said. “I saw that and I just burst out.”

Kathy said she saw flames cover her husband’s body.

Weird, but also a horror story.
