It's been a long time since I've even thought about my past. Mostly because it was too hard, but now I guess I've found something good to think about. It all started when I was 10. I was coming back from a restaurant with my parents. It was my birthday tradition that we go to that restaurant on my birthday every year. Anyway we were in the car talking and laughing and having such a good time that no one even noticed the huge truck headed towards the crossroads. The last thing I remember was the breaks, screams, glass shattering, and the car flipping. Then it was dark.
I remember that when I woke up in the hospital the first thing I thought was "what am I wearing?" What a stupid question. I was wearing a hospital gown! My parents were nowhere to be seen and I had just been in an accident and the first thing I think is 'what am I wearing?' Pathetic. I look around at the tubes, and whirring machines and everything comes back. I remember the sirens and the lights. I remember being in the ambulance and the people telling me to be still. I remember the pain in my shoulder and the worse feeling of all was the fear and panic and wondering were my parents were.
Just then the nurse came bustling in and looked at me and said "You're awake! Good! Good! Good!" She said, so cheery it was like she just won the lottery. "I knew all along you were a fighter. You got lots of fight left in you!" I didn't feel like it. My shoulder hurt like crazy, and so did my head. The nurse seemed almost too nice. She wore a white coat and hat thing. She wore white tennis shoes. All in all she looked like any other nurse. But there was something about her, she seemed to know everything about me, like she could see right into me. She had a wonderfully kind face, and it made me comfortable. "You had one nasty accident back there!"
"I did?"
"You sure did! You're shoulder popped right out and you hit you're head pretty hard!" That explains the shoulder and head pain. She didn't even look at my papers when she told me what had happened, like she just knew. She kept visiting and taking care of me. I'd like to think that we became friends while I was there, although she seemed like quite the mystery. All the time I wondered why my parents hadn't come to see me, and every time I asked people gave some excuse that they were very busy getting better themselves and would be here soon. But they never came.
