I was involved in a motor vehicle accident in which my car hit a tree at 95 mph. The car was traveling backwards due to the icy conditions. I received fifteen broken bones, a tramatic brain injury, a ruptured spleen, a gallbladder that died a few days later,and I was completely unconscience for about six weeks. Now I appear to be doing just fine. My mind seems to be back to normal and I can walk just fine.

I had two borken femurs,a broken tibia, one of the bones in my right ankle, four vertebrea, all four bones of my pelvis, my mandible, maxilla, and sinus bone in my face. My speen was removed immediatley, I had a cut right kidney and liver, A deflated bladder and right lung. I had bruises on most of my organs in my chest. I feel lucky to be alive and to be able to share my experienc with others. You can rcover from a brain injury. I'm proof.
