So I know some of you have read my responses and posts. But you know very little about me, I guess you could say I used to be quite a lot of fun; still can be. Why I was referred here was because I needed help,, any help with my pain I could get and Ice gave me that hope and help.Â
I was in a MVA in 96', as mentioned before, and pretty much broke up my whole body. I was 17 turning 18, a few months after. Â All the doctors said I'd be fine with a "pretty much" full recovery. Â With 4 shattered vertebrae, Â lacerations to my liver, causing internal bleeding and a total skull fracture; Â my parents were spoken to by a priest. Â They didn't know if I'd make it, they didn't even know my back was broken for 3 days.... Gangrene set in and after a 5 hour operation, I had a bag full of steel holding me together.Â
I currently live with Traumatic brain injury to my frontal lobe, chronic pain, Â fibromyallga, Â depression, Â and well; the list goes on. After a 17 year court case that only ended 3 years ago, I have had to relive this nightmare. Now, don't get me wrong, I was a millameter from being paralyzed, Â and for the doctor that flew in from the states; saved my life and I will be forever greatful...
 I'm tired of telling this story, as you can see why, but want you to know that no matter how many times people tell me I'm lucky to be walking and alive , I'm still angry at the guy who got off with no charges.  Going 120 klicks in a Chevete and hitting a Buick Skylark, he was able to go home that night with a cut toung. He never said sorry, he even had his cousin,  who was a cop, cover his @#$.Â
So, that's the beginning of Jade. I'm sorry if I brought anyone down.  I'm just trying to tell you guys a bit of myself  , a little at a time.Â
Always greatful and hoping to forgive myself and the driver who bent my life out of shape.
