I Am a Paraplegic
hello, im a 28 year old male. I am a father of three beautiful boys and have a wonderful woman in my life. On July 2,2011 i was in a car accident that left me a T-10 complete. I was like a lot of people around this area, I was dedicated to my work, LOVED hunting and fishing, and love my family. But i also loved to drink alcohol. I was on a dirt road not far from my house, only about a mile or so. I had a few too many to drink and was driving too fast, thats when god decided to slow me down i guess. I can still remember everything about that crash.....the sound of the gravel as it hit the windshield. the dirt and grass hitting my face as i flipped upside down. I ended up on my head in the car yelling for help. I tried to pull myself out but realized that i could not move my legs. Thankfully another motorist on that road pulled over and called 911. I remember lying in that hospital bed for two months thinking about how my life was never gonna be the same. Being paralyzed has really been a task, learning how to do everything over pretty much. Its only been a few months and thank god i have family and friends to help me through this hurdle.
