June 26 th o6 I was awkened by my ex boyfriend by a rageful phone call. John and I had broke up for several months after a 3 year relationship. We exchanged in a argument and he decided to come up to my home uninvited. On his way to my house he was driving his motorcycle fast and he was out the night before without any sleep.10 hours later, I received a call from his sister that he was in a coma due to a near fatal accident 10 miles from my home. This is where my life changed... John has brain injury, yes he functions well now. but he has short term memory, anger and rough mood swings. No medication any more, it helped at the time. But he could never remember to take it and swore he did not need it. I can tell all the details of the trauma that I went through and it would take a long time. but here now it is a little over a year we live together.. (kissed and made up) and here I am. I am so stressed that my personality changed.. I need the help to cope,learn respect and admiration and intimacy. Intimacy was broken with trust. He hurt himself with out thinking about his life or others. I cannot get passed it. I try and I'm working it... Only time will tell. My short story to continue..
