That's what happened to me February 20th, 2005. Or, more accurately, my body was partially thrown from my friend's pickup truck on our way to a youth group retreat in high school.
That accident was bad, for all involved, & my prognosis, in particular, was even worse. Among numerous other injuries, I sustained the traumatic brain injury that changed my life forever. I had to relearn literally everything. My family & friends were told that chances were, I would never wake up from my coma. Chances were, that even if I did wake up, I would never be able to live an independent life. Chances were, that my lifetime love for art would be lost forever too.
Chances are, I proved them all wrong; with hard work, sheer determination, lots of love, & a little creativity.
