I was in an serious accident. That was once. I don't know how many times I came close in the hospital, but it was more than once. I'm still here. I have a reason to be here. I still have to find her. If you're reading this, I'm ready for you. ZERO!

3 times.

Closest one was when I fell 5 stories from a building onto a fence and was 1/8 of an inch from having a major artery severed.

I have the best story,
I was head over heels for a man that did not love me. We were just friends but i wanted it to go a step further. Remaining friends he moved to another place on the island but was also transferring schools. I was at the shyest point in my life and did not have enough courage to ask him for his phone number. So we went our separate ways and i just fell off the face of the planet I was soo devistated that i just did not want to live anymore, I had planned on killing myself a few days later on a Saturday when no one was home., I was gonna take a bottle of 800mg motrin from the dentist and slit both of my wrists horizontally. That would do the trick.
But this song came on the cd i was playing to drain the sound of my screams and it was called hold on by Good Charlotte. I snapped out of everything. The whole song was about holding on and not giving up, But i was just soo far fetched about killing myself and dying that i wanted to die and as the song went on it said to hold on. People all bleed the same way as you do. Your nights are cold and lonely and your days feel soo long. Hold on don't give up. The whole song was telling me not to give up and there is a life out there waiting for me. So I STOPPED.

The secound time i tried it I was in love again with a man, And he liked me too but had a girlfriend that he kept from me. I ran into them in the store. Holding hands and walking together. I had been friends and tried to date him for over 2 years. We would flirt back and fourth and talk to one another all the time until i caught them together.
I was again devastated by that and it felt like everything was happening all over again so I went home cried for 3 days non stop and played that song for 3 days straight and woke myself up. I drained every tear out of my eyes, to the point that they were burning and my face was swollen.
But I got over it and am now in a relationship and am very happy, This one loves me too, Its hard when you are teenager in the world and feeling like your lost. No one to run to. Theres nothing you can do but go on and make the mistakes yourself.
But happily an adult I survived through it!

Who really knows? 1,000,000? But the one time I was aware of happened in my own home. I live alone in a 2-story house. I fell down 16 stairs in my home when I passed out at the top of them. Woke up @ 6 hrs later. Called for help when I realized that I had nearly cut my nose off my face due to the fall. Later found out that I had fainted due to blood loss resulting from a tubular pregnancy. I didn't have a clue! Well, I had a near-death experience while I was under the knives(both ends), and now I fear death no more! It was a surprisingly peaceful experience!! child birth

none

4. I was diagnosed with diabetes. I almost drowned. A car almost took my head off. I hydroplaned into a power pole. No stories, just happened. It does remind one to keep one's affairs in order, and enjoy the moments we have.

103 degree temp as a baby.

1 head-on collision. The other guy fell asleep, hit me head on, and drove me backwards up an embankment. I had whiplash and was lucky that was all.

1 side collision. I must have blacked out while driving~I was told that a delivery van smashed into the side of my car; my head took out the passenger window, and she pushed me about 500 feet into a church yard (!) They said they found me in the passenger side of the vehicle (and I always wear my seatbelt) and I don't remember anything until they were loading me up in the ambulance. The car, a PT Cruiser, was totally demolished. I've been told that what saved my life was that the PT Cruiser is built like a bubble. I really don't know how I didn't fly out of the window and get smashed between the door and the front of the van. It was broad daylight, I don't drink or do drugs, and don't remember a thing about it, even now, and that was in November '04. I had some memory problems (just now resolving), so I assume I had a concussion from window vs. head. Yeah, I checked myself out of the hospital like a big dummy. I do remember a cop making me sign something in the ER, and the stupid lab tech insinuating that I had alcohol in my system. "You better tell me now if you been drinking, I'm going to find out!" What an a$$. I do remember telling him to take every last drop of blood if that would satisfy him. Man, that peeved me off. He just assumed I was drinking.
