Hi,
i haven't been writing here in a while, and i'm sorry for that. It's because almost seven months ago my life changed forever. Finally I have been accepted to medical school, i have moved out from my hometown and i have started to learn how to really be independent. The last seven months have been nothing, but wonderful: there have been ups and downs of course, but more ups than downs. It's finally starting to feel as the life i have always wanted to live and i can't express how grateful i am for everything that i'm experiencing.
Unfortunately, after seven months, almost perfect, early this week i had a car accident. I had just finished my clerkship at the hospital, and shortly after getting in my car, a truck crashed against the back of my car. It was awful. I never felt so scared in my entire life. The people who rescued me told me i had been extremely lucky, because even though my car was completely destroyed, i managed to get out almost without even a scratch.
So yes... i guess i don't have a lot to say, rather than i'm beyond grateful and lucky to be able to write this right now and just to be alive. Never take for granted anything, enjoy even the little things, laugh, smile, cry, scream....just live, live well.
I hope that my experience can make you understand that life is a precious gift and that no one has a say in it. This is your life, and you can live it however you want.
