I can’t get into detail as I’m still in the middle of legal proceedings, but I have to say how relieved I am that there are some good people there in the world. It’s so hard not to give specifics, making this whole account sound very cryptic. I was reminded how precious life is, and how close I came to the end of mine. Seeing pictures of my post-accident self and hearing strangers talk about that night makes me all that much more happy to be writing this to you right now.

Criminal Court – yuck

Well tomorrow through Friday (Thursday at least) will be the criminal trial of the girl that ran me over. I can’t say too much about what’s going on with the case, so if you’re interested in the details please contact me directly. Think happy thoughts for me, or vengeful thoughts, which I think may be more applicable in this case.

I can’t thank you enough!

I have already generated over $1000 in donations via paypal, just from setting up the link here on the website! That, along with other donations has me almost at $1500. I can’t believe it, and I can’t thank you all enough. I want you to know that everything helps, even non-monetary gifts like a warm greeting or message. You are all giving me the strength to make it through this horrible time. Even knowing that I have a few friends reading this blog keeps me going and energized!

Much love,

Amy



Care Package

This was the SECOND care package from my good friend Gina in the same day! The first one consisted of fresh made vegan peanut butter cookies that made me insane, meaning I couldn’t stop thinking about them they were so freakin’ good. Homemade pumpkin/squash curry which I have yet to try, two kinds of organic fresh juices to chase away an impending cold I feel a-comin and a bag of fresh figs from her parent’s tree.

Now this here is the second care package which ROCKED MY WORLD:

1. Enchanted Unicorn Bandages with free toy inside

?. I’ll get to later.

2. Homeopathic flu remedy and throat coat teas (for impending cold)

3. Grow a Lawyer (for impending legal hell)

All wrapped in the cutest pink with black polka dots tissue paper you’ve ever seen, oh and tied together perfectly with a black fabric ribbon.

Now the questionable element is the razor blade attached, with glitter tape, to the Enchanted Unicorn Bandages. What exactly does this mean? Is it a test to see if I’m quick enough to get the Enchanted Unicorn on my wrist before it’s too late? Does she know me that well to know that I will in fact spew rainbows and unicorns from any wound? I thought only I knew that. I bet you’ll never guess what the razor is for. But I’d love to hear you try!



Best thing someone said to me today

Each day is actually filled with favorite lines from friends and loved ones. Today though, a friend emailed me this, and I loved it so much I wanted to make it in BOLD FACE ON THE FRONT PAGE OF THIS SITE:

“What a totally shitty, sucky situation, but I will be honest in saying that I’m glad you’re dealing with this as opposed to us dealing with no more you.”

I’m looking up

Ok, I was starting to freak myself out because I was getting caught in this pattern of “oh my god, this is the WORST”. I hurt all the time, court is going to be a nightmare, I can’t ride a bike for who knows how long. Waaahhhh!!! This isn’t helping anything and it’s not “me”! For now, I’m just going to sleep on it as I have an early morning with the nurse and a lot of emailing to do to spread the word about the new site I got here.



I have that icky “victim” feeling

I’ve just been having that nasty feeling like this whole thing is going to turn for the worse. It’s so not like me. Anyone that knows me will tell you that I’m usually a little ball of sunshine that sees only the good in the world. Well fuck that. Right now I feel like, “what if the worst happens.” All I keep thinking (without getting into details of the legal hell I’m about to go through, please ask me directly if you want to know what’s going on with the case) is if there is no insurance on the truck that ran me over, which is looking like a scary possibility right now, then I AM SCREWED! There are some indicators pointing towards the worst right now and they are making me feel like, dare I say, a helpless victim. Please, send me a funny youtube video NOW!



I’m blogging!!!! I’m BLOGGING!!!!

Hey everyone! I never in a million years thought I’d be a freakin blogger. So, I’m not, I’m an account re-teller via the web. How’s that sound? Basically I thought this would be a great way for me to let everyone know how I’m doing and what’s going on with the fund raiser and such.

I’ve been overwhelmed by the response from friends all over the country, and complete strangers who’ve read about the accident and are donating art or a craft to the fund raiser. Read more about the event and how to donate in the pages to the left, and look forward to more stuff really soon!

Much love,

Amy
