I will try to keep this as short as possible...
This past Monday, I was driving to my new job (I've only been working there a week!) in a small town surrounded by farmland. Loose gravel got under my tires, I tried to overcorrect and ended hitting an embankment head-on. My injuries ended being a split lip which required stitches, a minor abrasion on my wrist, and some aches/pains. My car is pretty much totaled but I managed to walk away with only minor scrapes/bruises.
I actually went to work the day after my accident because I felt up to it, though a little sore. I was putting on my makeup yesterday morning as I always do and it fully and completely hit me. I am very very fortunate to be alive.
I am aware of how easily it could have gone the other way with me not being here right now. Love and support from my friends, family, my boyfriend and colleagues are what is getting me through all of this. I am keeping my spirits up and wanted to send out positive thoughts to anyone here who is going to through tough times. If you wanted to share any words of encouragement and hope after a scary ordeal (only if you're comfortable), then please feel free.
