So this is the update on everything that's been going on the last month or so. I first moved in with my boyfriend... everything was going pretty good, I was even hoping to get my first job back in Troy. So it was only about 2 weeks with him before I planned to go to Mexico MO to visit my sister. Everything was going pretty good, I would have never of seen what was about to happen to me. I was only at my sister's for about 4 days, and I was actually planning on going home the 5th day. Well, one night as I was there, just hanging out with my sister all day, getting ready for the mall. Well, we thought we were going to the mall, but her boyfriend didn't have enough gas money to drive to Columbia which is about 30 min away from where they lived. So later that night me and my sister were a little pissed that we spent all day getting ready for the mall when we didn't even go. So, our "friend" came over and brought some alcohol... and we started drinking out in the driveway. Kandi's boyfriend got mad cause he didn't want us drinking... so we left. We went to a few gas stations in town, but they were closed. So we drove a couple miles to a gas station that was open to get even more alcohol cause we were planning on going on a gravel road to get drunk... well, I decided to get in the backseat with my sister at that time. We then started driving back on the highway to eventually get on a gravel road.. we never made it to the gravel road. We all must have been pretty drunk and we had the music up pretty loud, me and my sister were just kinda singing and dancing in the backseat. The last thing I remember is going off the white line. I knew we were going to crash. I blacked out and didnt remember the whole accident. I woke up right outside of the vehicile with some of my hair under the tire. I freaked out as soon as I woke up, cause I remember seeing my sister standing not too far from me with blood all over her head. I was screaming and crying and yelling at the people not to cut my hair. Well, they had to. My sister and the guy who was driving (I'm not going to say his name) were already in an ambulance heading to the hospital by the time I got in the ambulance I was in. Luckily, it wasn't that busy that night and there wasn't many people out. So it was only our vehicle that crashed alone. Everyone turned out okay though. The SUV was totaled.. I actually got thrown out of the vehicle (which is how my hair ended up under the tire) It happened on a little bridge with concrete guard rails, I believe. I was in the hospital for about 3 days. I had my face all scraped up, cut behind my ear, on my forehead and the back of my head I had to get stitches. I got 18 staples on my head.Theres scrapes pretty much all over my back, and on my wrist. I'm pretty sure I'll have scars. They had to shave the part where I had the cut on my head... I have some fractured bones in my back, and my hand's fractured. I have to wear a cast thing untill a couple weeks where I can start doing therapy to start using my hand again. I can still type pretty good with my left hand and right thumb. My sister happened to turn out pretty much okay, with a fucked up forehead from I'm guessing hitting the windshield. I'm more grateful for my life more than ever, cause I know I could have died that night. I remember when I was passed out, seeing a light slowly starting to get bigger, and I heard a "voice" in my head saying "There's light at the end of the tunnel." I'm not going to go all out and say I died and came back, but if there's anything pretty damn close to death, that was it.
