I don't remember anything from that day but the accident report say's I swerved to miss an animal.
Yes I had my seatbelt on and no I had not been drinking alcohol. It was a Sunfire. Nice sporty lookin' car.
That tree really wrecked me. I will go back and cut it down as soon as I am able.
I was in a Coma for about a month because of that damn tree.
Both my lung's needed to be drained because they were about 95% full of blood.

Things are going about as well as anyone could hope. Bouncing back
from such a challenging crisis, recovery was arduous and still is, but
also proved to be a positive learning experience. Thanks for checking in, ~William Scobie |
