Mended by Him

DISCLAIMER: This short story includes an accident and medical condition I am not completely familiar with or specialize in at all. It is a completely fictional and made-up story using the research and knowledge I have on the subject. The condition itself and the time used to heal as well as other facts could and may be inaccurate.

--------------------------

You never expect something bad to happen to you. We live our lives watching others have accidents or lose a loved one, but no one thinks something like that would happen.

That was exactly the case for me. I was riding my bike to another track practice on a warm, spring Saturday evening. I was on my town road when a drunk driver swerved and crashed right into me, sending me whirling off the road. I didn't remember much after except an overwhelming pain in my spine before going unconscious. How much more cliche could this get?
