Thought she was completely invincible.
Then when she was in high school, you got into a bad car accident.
They thought she was just unconscious with an concussion.
But really she had a blood clot on her brain.
The doctors told her family if she would have gotten there 15 minutes later she would have been brain dead.
The doctors told her that luckily an off duty EMT saw the car accident and that's what saved her life.
The police report told her that if they didn't hit that tree they would have all died in that car accident.
But no one died.
Instead this girl was having brain surgery to save her life.
How do I know all of this?
Because I was this girl..
Because I believe the power of prayer, I was saved.
God had bigger plans for my life.
Why I write this?
Because it has been exactly 10 years since this happened to me. Ten years ago to this date. I was that girl in high school with half a shaved head. I have learned through prayer that God had bigger plans for me. He wasn't ready for me. I had a purpose in this life. Since then I have learned so many things.
After my own personal life experiences, maybe this is why? Maybe if I spread my own personal story, it will help others.
Only God will know.
Prayer is so amazing.
God is listening..
You just need to listen.
Today I'm celebrating 10 years of being alive.
What are you making of your life?

Thank you for sharing your story. My Mr was in a very bad wreck in high school and lost his best friend. He survived but has bad scares and only one functioning lung. Yeasterday would have been his best friends 26th birthday. This week has been tough around our house. Your story made it a little easier. I know God has a plan for all of us. <3
looks like you are already helping people. :) I had no clue! You are incredible! So happy to call you my friend!!!
Kim, I remember coming to school the morning Garrett and Emily found out and Emily came up to me and told me what had happened and she and I sat down in the cafeteria and prayed for you. And as she found things out afterwards she would let me know. So happy that you were not killed and that I can call you a friend.
