I just recently had a serious motorcycle accident resulting in 4 broken ribs, broken left shoulder and an almost crushed skull.. I was riding my bike along a secluded road and was speeding at 90mph or 140kph since I was in a hurry to go home to my kids one slippery night on March 2008.
My head was quite tipsy and quite loaded with problems both from work and at home. My mind was not on the road but on how to be able to get over the problems that surrounded me that time. What I didn't know was that I had subconsciously had the speed of the bike in full throttle. As I was speeding along the road, I noticed a group of cows crossing the road from a reasonable distance. I saw the last cow cross the road and headed towards the path where he left off. What I was unaware about was that, there was still another cow that was left behind at the blindspot on my left. Upon probably seeing me on my speeding bike, he acted and headed towards me and we collided with each other head-on!
I was out for a couple of minutes until I woke up still on that same road with some other people staring at me. I was about to get up and move ahead but they told me not to since they said that my helmet was crushed. They removed my helmet and luckily there was no blood coming from my head. A couple of minutes later, a rescue ambulance came and they picked me up and brought me to the nearest medical center. There I found out that I have fractured bones and bruises all over. I was surprised to found out who was at my side when I woke up at the hospital - my (ex?!)-wife just came in that same night from overseas. She is the mother of majority of my children! She was there and took care of me the whole time. We never had a very good communication ever since she went overseas with my stepson.
When I went home from the hospital, she was still with me and all our kids were so delighted to see us together. We all stayed in the house and this accident brought us together literally. This accident is indeed quite painful but it redeemed my married life and brought my wife back to us and me to them. I could say that accident almost took my life or I was nearly dead or have been dead for a while but am now Alive and already set to have a Family that would never leave each other behind. Thanks to the Cow who hit me on that Road! I just wish that he is not hurt when I collided with him and like me still alive and now having a great time with my family.
