Tayler and Danny..you are in our prayers.
wow..its amazing how life can throw so many things at you at once..
So on April 6th I had surgery on BOTH of my knees, not the best of experiences but im getting through it, and finally for the first time in almost a week, im able to sit up and be somewhat normal..
**HERE'S THE STORY**
15 minutes before i went into my own surgery, i get a call. Some of our best friends are dead, paralized, bleeding to death, etc. And then thats it. I go under the knife.
Here I am today, newly informed, and somewhat relieved. I just got off the phone..I left tayler a voicemail, and while i tried to remain strong, i cried throughout the entire thing. One of my best friends was put through a life threating situation, and pulled through. What an amazing, amazing person. Reading others' entries on her with her hair in pigtails and eating only certain color skittles made me so happy...tayler is not only ok, but she is HERSELF. Those of you who are also close friends of hers know exactly what traits of tayler im talking about. Not only did tay survive, but the cutest and stongest of personalities pulled through as well.
thats my girl Tay. I know you arent reading this, but others are. We all love you and are so proud of you. you are amazing, strong, and someone i look up to with all my heart.
As for danny, before I went into surgery I heard he was dead. DEAD. Although Danny and I are not the closest of friends, i definitely know the guy. And i cried and cried and cried when i heard the first of a strand of rumors. All i could think was "one of our friends..dead? how could this happen to us? the students and friends of canyon high school...loose someone, just like that?" Now I have heard of his recent condition and its the biggest relief ever. Ive experienced a family member go through a similar incident, and let me tell you..DANNY WILL GET THROUGH THIS. he has made such amazing advances already..and all i can say is please, keep him in your heart. WHatever religion you are, pray for him. every single thought counts.
This accident has made me realize a lot of things.. and as I lay here completely immobile with both of my knees stuck in braces and covered in staples, i realize that my situation isnt all that bad. God pulls us through..whether it be something like my surgery that now seems so minor, or a terrible, life-threatening car accident.
Look what these two have pulled through. They are SURVIVORS.. strong strong people that i hope everyone admires.
and thank you to those of you that went out to see those two. I can only imagine just HOW MUCH that truly meant to them, their families, and their friends-including me. I couldnt be there..but im SOO happy that some of you could.
..PRAY..PRAY..PRAY..
