This is a blog about my life after a near death, life changing accident and my journey to rise from my ashes like the phoenix.

Feeling Broken
I sit here, quietly, with silent tears streaming down my cheeks and dripping off my chin to land softly on my shirt. There are so many things I cry for but mostly for how the accident has changed my life, the scars that cover my body and face. I also cry for the contractures that never let up and limit my mobility. I feel broken in both body and heart. It's times like these that I do wish I had not made it, as bad as that sounds. What would life be like now, without me almost four years later? I think it would be the hardest on my family around the date of the accident and maybe days like my birthday and holidays. But I think as time went on, they would be fine. I think my friends would be fine. Life would go on without me and I wouldn't have had to suffer through all this physical and emotional pain all these years. How would my family remember me? How would my friends remember me? Will my life turn out to be worth having lived through such a horrific accident? Or will a part of me always wish the fire had taken me? I fear the anger and anguish will never completely go away and thus I will never fully be at peace.

Sorry I am late posting on here, but I have been thinking about this and need to say something. You are my best and dearest friend in the whole world. And I would not be okay or fine without you. Like I've told you before, there is a love in my heart that belongs to you and no one could ever fill it if you were gone. I would be empty. And there are a lot of people that feel like I do. Your friends and family could not live without you. And it wouldn't just be hard on holidays. Because you are our inspiration. That means you are thought of every single day, not just on your birthday or a couple times a year. I think about you dozens of times a day every day. Wondering how you are doing/feeling/thinking, and how my inspiration, my strong SB, would conquer the curveballs life throws at us. I wish you peace with your life, my dear. And I will do all that I can to help you through it all. I love you. We love you. And we will NEVER stop fighting for you to be here with us. I just needed you to know this, my besty!!
