Court is done
April 6th 2008 is a date when my whole world came crashing to a stop, literally. At the time I was working full time at the post office, while working my Sundays at Pizza Hut. I had made this drive over a thousand times, each time without any incident. I guess my number was up. With just one quick glance to my right my car was suddenly no longer on the same path I had intended for it.
I have been driving for years. Not once was I ever in an accident that occurred while actually driving. You never expect it to be you, but I guess after years of my jobs being purely delivery jobs it was bound to happen.
Over a thousand deliveries and this one would end up changing my life forever. When I was hit, I only had enough time to veer a little to the right and brace my body for impact. That impact would eventually tear my ACL in my left knee and create a few compression fractures in my back. I had been losing weight, feeling great, and getting my life back together. It was then all gone.
Only recently have I been able to get back on track. Finally I was able to get my court date and finish all the madness. I will say that things ended up going my way which I am glad. But who knew that it would be so stressful and so draining. I will have to write more about the inner workings of the court case next. For now, I just wanted to let everyone know where I have been and why I have been away from the computer. Hope you enjoy!
