I am looking for a male or female that would like to be my friend. I don't drive as of right as a result of seizures that I've had in the past & am still going through some testing to see if I'm capable of driving a car, safely. I will also have to go through some driving schooling. I am still in school but am expecting to graduate in the year of 2001, yes, school is extremely hard but, I work very hard to achieve a long & anticipated goal & I study all the time to achieve the G.P.A. that I have to maintainl. After my car accident I had to spend the rest of that year & part of the next (until April of 96') in therapy. My accident occurred May 4, 1995. I thought I was ready to go back to school in the fall of 97' & have been enrolled since then @ IUPUI. Indiana University/ Purdue University of Indianapolis. Right now, my primary goal is to graduate from college and get a successful job so that I can put my life together again, the way that I want it & not fate. Another thing that I had to have done because my brain was swelling so profusely is have my fronal bone (forehead) taken out so that my brain would have room to swell. I had that out from approximately May 6 until the middle of September, now you can't even tell that I had to have anything done because of all my long dark hair. My "main" doctor that looked over my care, told my parents that I'd never go back to school nor would I graduate, well I am back to school & soon to be graduating as I said before, in the year of 2001. I enjoy horseback riding, bike riding, going to the Indianapolis 500, the brickyard 400 & being with my family, especially my niece & nephew & being around children. I am a single, white female. I've never been married nor do I have any children but do want some as soon as I get married. I do not smoke & would rather here from someone that didn't smoke, either. I have lived in Indianapolis for about 8 years & grew up in Vincennes, Indiana. Email Jennifer
Hello! My name is Jennifer Mark & I live in Indianapolis, Indiana. Four years ago, I was involved in a very traumatic car accident. As a result, I had suffered many fractured bones, along with a traumatic head injury. I am 27 years old & the living example of a miracle. The reason I say I'm a true example of a miracle is because according to the doctors & nurses I'm not supposed to be here, the amount of damage that was done to my brain tells (usually) anyone that I would be died but the doctors didn't consider one VERY important Person & that is God. The doctors said that I would be died within 3 hours & everyone keep waiting & waiting but, I never died.God wasn't ready for me yet, so here I am. My accident was very traumic for my family as anyone that has gone through something like this is to a family. On August the 30th I will be 28 years old. My old friends have lost touch with me, because they have moved on with their own lives. They never even call me to say HI or to see how I'm doing. I want to go out to meet other people but I don't have anyone to go out with besides my mother & we do go out occasionally, but I would like someone a little closer to my age. I am a Catholic & trust in God very much.
