March 17th

I can't believe that it has been over two and a half years since my accident. 

It was such a crazy time for me and my family. 

I feel like I grew so much and I am so grateful for the blessings that came from my accident. 

For those of you who don't know what I am talking about when I say "accident"

I broke my neck. 

Yes, "be careful or your going to break your neck" is not just an expression. 

I actually did and I have the battle wounds to prove it.

The back scar has really healed up just fine and you can hardly notice it.

But this front scar has turned into a keloid which is not that flattering. 

 

My parents came to me after this started happening and asked me if i wanted to get it taken care of so it was not as noticeable. 

At first, I did not really want to. 

Battle wounds. 

Duh.

But then after random people started asking me in the check out line what happened. 

Or people at parties bring up as a conversation starter, I thought. 

This thing has got to go.

Plus, over the years it has become even worse that it hurts to touch.

So today I saw the doctor to have this bad boy tamed! 

I am so excited!

Because lets face it random grocery store worker

It is kind of an awkward conversation starter. 

"Oh what happened"

"ummm, I broke my neck"

"oh... "

yeah, you didn't see that one coming huh. 

 

So here's to dodging that bullet!
