Turn of Events
Well, it has been more than a while since I've updated. Lemme tell ya, I have a lot to fill you in on! The reason I have not been keeping up with my blog was because of a serious accident. As you know from previous posts, my "friends" were sucking pretty hard core, and in an attempt to work things out they had invited me to ride with them to the Girls' State Semi Finals in East Lansing. Of course, I agreed. Dani was the driver, Hannah sat shot gun, and Brittney Emily and I filled up the back seat. On Our way there we got decked out in blue and gold apparel and were singing to every song Hannah put on the stereo. Dani's mom then called to make sure we were safe. As Dani went to hang up the phone she thought the car in front of her stopped so she slammed on her brakes. Going 90 MPH at the time, we began to fishtail and hit the rumble strips, Dani over compensated and we were sent flying. Her Honda CRV bounced off the beginning of a guard rail and we flipped four times before landing on the opposite side of the highway. I hit my head on the window, blacked out, and flew out of the car door on the second flip. I gained consciousness and realized the right half of my body was stuck in the guard rail. Thank God that there was a paramedic driving behind us because I lay there with one lung collapsed unsure if the rest of my life was gonna be spent on this earth. Before I knew it the ambulance arrived and I was rolled onto a stretcher. I woke up in the ICU in Helen Devos hospital where i learned of all of my injuries. They are as follows:
1. Broke 3 vertebrate
2. Broke collar bone
3. Broke clavicle
4. All 12 right ribs
5. Lacerated liver
6. Lacerated right lung
7. Pulled my brachial plexus
8. Five stitches on my back
9. 16 Staples on the back of my head
10. Sprained left ankle
