Tell me something you survived
Is there something you lived though that might have killed most people.
Tell me your story

I was riding a bicycle and an automobile started coming right at me. I pedaled like crazy, and the car ended up hitting my rear wheel, instead of hitting my body. I had a badly broken elbow, but a few seconds difference could have killed me. (The driver had the sun in his eyes, could not see, but was accelerating.)

I will also add a few more things to this as I had more time to think. I originally never wrote some stuff because ofthe word "survived", i dont really like that word so to speak when it comes to certain things but anyway
When i was a child, i went through a lot of physical, mental and sexual abuse at the hands of a few trusted adult family members.
I know a lot of people (that i have heard about and seen) who went through similar things and would later take their own lives. I wont lie, i have had thoughts like that at a few points in my life but never due to my childhood.
Also another time i will write, when i was 19 years old i got into a massive car crash (my fault) two passengers in my car, broke their backs and I ended up with no real damage. However a thick rod of metal had come right through the windscreen. If i had crashed less than 30 cm's to my right, it would have went right through my head.
Those 2 girls with broken backs were all better within a month btw and i went to court for over a year and eventually lost my license for 6 years and a hell of a lot of community service hours, which by the way, if none of that did not happen, i would never have met the girl i would eventually have a child with.
That i believe was fate

My daughter in-law almost died too. She had it during pregnancy. When she went into labor her blood pressure sky rocketed. She had what they called HELP. Her kidneys and liver started to fail. To save her and our granddaughter, they did an emergency C-section. She was in labor for 3 days. We almost lost both of them
@HumanEarth Oh my goodness :( I was monitored from 28 weeks. They kept me in for a month, until it became too dangerous and she was delivered via csection at 32 weeks. She had stopped growing at 28wks. My placenta was pretty non existent.
Hope all is ok now.
