A
A
In
2010
I
was
involved
in
a
motor
vehicle
accident
due
to
drinking
and
driving
life.
For
me,
before
my
accident
was
never
a
dull
moment.
I
was
fueled
by
adrenaline.
I
love
to
to
see
how
far
I
could
push
my
limits.
Life
seemed
perfect.
I
got
a
text
from
a
friend
of
mine
asking
me:
hey
man,
I'm
coming
to
town
later,
let's
go
and
get
some
drinks,
I
just
kept
drinking
and
drinking
taking
shot
after
shot,
so
I
so
intoxicated
I
wasn't
thinking
clearly
and
without
hesitation.
A
I
just
jumped
in
the
car
and
left
and
after
that
everything
became
a
blur,
but
I
remember
waking
up
five
days
later
in
the
hospital,
not
knowing
how
I
got
there,
not
knowing
what
happened.
I
could
twitch
my
right
shoulder.
That
was
it.
I
thought
I
was
tied
down.
She
landed
my
wife.
She
was
hugging
me
and
just
crying.
I
told
her
in
time.
She
goes.
I
love
to
untie
you,
but
I
can't
because
you're
paralyzed
nobody
thinks
the
bad
will
happen
to
them.
I
learned
my
lesson.
