Ha! I don't know how you always do it, friend, but... you do. :D

Such a moving story. You are obviously a strong person to have survived this horrendous accident. Keep that strength. Hopefully time will heal you physically and mentally

Wendy, I almost feel I need to apologize for the 'so glad you are doing well' comment - it may seem a little glib. I am glad, of course, that you are recovering physically. And that you are so amazingly strong in coping with the after effects of your accident. I hope that the nightmares fade soon - become less and less frequent, less and less intense.
Some years ago I flew to stay with my daughter who had slipped in a flooded bathroom and broken some ribs hitting the side of the bath. Broken ribs, no collapsed lung or other injuries, but she was in great pain and zonked out of her brain on meds for quite a few days. So I can only begin to imagine how bad it is for you. My thoughts are with you - best wishes for as speedy and complete recovery as is possible. Your photography, under the circumstances, is phenomenal. You are one remarkable lady.

Oh dang. Now I can't see.

I hate crying... so I can't read the rest.

Kudos to you, sweet, brave, amazing Wendy!

You are an inspiration to us all.

What a story. A grand homage to the scars that remain for so many of us, scars primarily hidden on the the inside long after the traumatic event and long after the healing of exterior wounds. Such hidden scars that can, however, be seen in the depths of the eyes if one pays close attention. You surely showed us those eyes here.

I am so glad you are recovering. I'm sorry for the continuing fear. I hope day after day you continue to grow stronger.
