Tomorrow's Anniversery
Tomorrow is the anniversey of a horrible car accident I was in. My two friends Amanda, Cherie and I were headed towards the movie theater when Amanda (who was driving) turned out, and a cement truck rammed us on her side. Luckily Cherie was on my side of the car when it happened, or else she would've suffered from worse damage, or died as Amanda had. The doctors said that all her organs were pushed to one side as the truck rammed into us. Cherie made it out with minor cuts and bruises. I was in a drug endused coma for one and a half months. I was transfered from one hospital to another. I then spent a month and a half in the hospital to rehabiliate myself. But I did such a fast recovery that I was soon able to go home, though I still had to have therapy.
It was my senior year in high school, and the one thing I wanted throughout my summer was to make it back and finish high school with my grade. I was glad, I was able to complete that because the doctor's had said I would have to wait two years before I could return to school. That meant I'd have to graduate with my sister (Krysin), and it wasn't that I didn't like her class. I knew some of them through her and her friends, but I wanted to graduate with my class! Who wouldn't?
So I made it back to school on the first day, and worked hard to finish with the rest of my class. Sure, since I suffered from a concussion and I had had internal bleeding and my brain had swelled I had some problems with going back to school. For one I couldn't focus on all the classes I had, so I had three classes instead of the usual six that everyone else had. Not that I got to slack off or anything, or sleep in in the morning. In the morning I went to the gym with my mom and worked out to help build my strength up again. You have no idea what it's like to lie in a bed for a month and a half. You have no strength once you wake up and try to walk. For one you can't, because you lost all your leg muscles, and in a way have to re-learn how to walk.
I still haven't returned to my full strength that I had the year prior, but I'm getting there. I've graduated from high school, and have begun taking a college class during the summer. I've made it, and I'm proud of myself for it. Tomorrow I plan on going to my friend Amanda's grave with a few of my friends.
