Ok, so I had a head on collision with an auto trolly and .. pretty much messed up my life right now. Broke my right leg pretty bad, the wounds pretty deep and … looks like I m gonna have a long bed rest to recover … sheeesh! N i wasnt even speeding!
Sometimes when bad luck runs ur way, therez nothing much you can do .. one thing I have learnt .. no matter what knocks ur door … open it with a brave high held chest 
Being a doctor did come handy that day 
, after the collision, when I looked at leg, I saw the open wound, blood gushing out, skin peeled off … I could see a part of my knee cap and my Tibia broken into two, with its upper part coming out. That wasnt the moment to panic or cry, I knew I had to save my leg … there wasnt anything I could use as a splint, so using both my hand I held my leg tight in position, while people picked me up and rushed to a near by hospital.
It was the moment I lay down in the emergency room, that tears rolled out of me, I was in a shock … IS THIS FOR REAL!? .. questions running in my mind, will my leg be ok? will I walk again? .. there wasnt anyone close to me I could hold on to … atleast for a min or two .. just to feel relieved .. It was bad really bad .. and on top of it .. hearing the docs say .. OMG thatz the worst wound I have ever seen ..
6hrs in the OT, they tried to repair my leg .. and after 10hrs i got up, my whole leg was in plaster, IV lines running thru two places, ECG leads on my chest … N I was heavily sedated .. The doc came n told me, we tried our best, lets wait and see if things get lucky.
After a week, my healing showed some promise, well I still have a long way to fully recover. The skin over the injury has to heal, so that they can do internal plating .. right now I have 6rods on the exterior .. and on complete bed rest.
Lying down all day doing nothing, is making me even more sick!
I hope I get well soon …
