Rolled down a mountain.
I had spent a great weekend with my husband. On our way home, November 12,2018 at 9:30 at night we had a horrible accident. I was driving up a mountain pass worrying about nothing but if I had gas to make it to the next station ( I wouldn’t have BTW) when I happened upon an elk that had been ran over. In my lane of course. No problem, I start to go around it like normal people so when up pops the lady who ran it over. She wasn’t In her car, nor were her hazard lights on. She was in the middle of the road, with only a cell phone as a light. I swerved to keep from running her over and my LandRover flipped 4 times down the mountain. I was knocked out the first roll Thank god. That was more than likely when I broke my neck. Two places, both in C2. I also crushed my arm, breaking it In 6 places. I was taken to a small hospital then airlifted to a larger one. I had surgery to repair my arm and now I have 3 plates and Lord knows how many screws. I only was able to remove the neck brace a week ago. I feel a lot of things, anger, guilt and sadness. I was a lumberjack before. I cut down trees with my chainsaw and hauled logs. Now I can’t lift more than 2 lbs before the pain gets to much. I want nothing more than to get my life before back. I didn’t deserve this. I was doing anything wrong.
