I WAS INVOLVED IN A CAR/MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT ON MAY 9TH, 1987 IN DES MOINES, IOWA. I WAS ON MY WAY TO HELP A FRIEND AND HIS PARENTS MOVE TO THERE NEW HOUSE IN URBANDALE IOWA, WHICH IS A SUBURB OF DES MOINES WHEN I WAS STRUCK BY AN ELDERLY LADY WHO FAIL TO YIELD THE RIGHT OF WAY CAUSING ME TO GO AIRBORNE ON MY HONDA 500 SHADOW MOTORCYCLE, NOT WEARING A HELMET - NO LAW AT THAT TIME ON WEARING THEM SO I BEING STUPID WOULD RATHER HAVE THE WIND IN MY HAIR, BEING FREE AS THE WIND. WELL, I SPENT 10 DAYS IN A FULL COMA, AND 4 DAYS IN AND OUT OF CONSCIENCENESS(MISPELLED I KNOW) AND SPENT A TOTAL OF 89 DAYS IN THE HOSPITAL, HAVING MANY, I STRESS MANY,MANY SURGERIES. I HAD TO LEARN THE BASICS, LIKE BEING A BABY AGAIN. LEARNING TO WALK, TALK, WRITE, SPELL, ETC,ETC. IF YOU TO SEE ME NOW YOU WOULD NEVER BELIEVE HOW FAR I HAVE COME, SURE I HAVE SLID BACKWARDS IN SOME THINGS AS IN ALL OF US B.I. PEOPLE HAVE, BUT THANK GOD EVERY DAY OF WHAT HE HAD GIVEN ME, SO I WILL LEAVE FOR NOW, BUT WANTED TO SHARE THIS MUCH TOO YOU AND EVERYONE OUT THERE, KEEP THE FAITH AS I DID, GOD DOES BRING MIRACLES AS MY MOTHER WOULD AGREE. THANKS FOR THIS OPPERTUNITY YOU HAVE ON THIS TERRIFIC WEB-SITE.
