Cracked my skull, gave me a subarachnoid hemorrhage (50/50 on surviving those), cracked a couple ribs, lacerated my spleen, and broke my pelvis into eight pieces. Spent a week in ICU, then another two weeks in a nursing home and couldn’t stand on my own two feet for almost a year, went through the PT to relearn how to walk, then COVID hit.
Found out that most of my friends were fake, outside of my partner, one person offered to help drive me to doctor’s appointments, and one person showed up a couple of times to chat through the year. Nobody brought food, or offered to help with the housework, or wanted to help with errands. Not even my family or my partner’s family.
Because of the whiplash, I’ve since developed bone spurs in my neck that are pressing on my spinal cord and between that, the pre-existing brain tumor, and the TBI, I’ve not been able to hold down steady employment since.
I got t-boned by a SUV going 55mph.
