determination

On November 4th, 2020, my life changed in an instant. A seizure caused by a previous head injury led to a catastrophic crash, leaving me with 20 broken bones, a broken jaw, a torn carotid artery, and a stroke. Flatlining at the scene, it seemed as though my life was over. But God had different plans for me.

After spending 15 days in a coma, I woke up with a deep sense of purpose. I knew my road to recovery would be long and difficult, but it was my second chance at life. Over the next three years, my faith in God and resilience guided me through the pain. My accident lawyer worked tirelessly to get my case deemed catastrophic, and I was able to start the rehabilitation process.

Despite the immense challenges, I found strength I never knew I had. My relationship with God became my anchor, and through prayer, I felt His presence every step of the way. Now, more than three years later, I have a renewed sense of clarity and determination. I am setting new goals, including a dream to compete in the Olympics, and I know that with God’s guidance, no obstacle is insurmountable.

This journey has taught me that resilience is not just about bouncing back, but about embracing the struggle and trusting in God’s plan. Never give up, because the rewards of getting back up are immeasurable.
