试题详情

Oct 31, 2013 wasn’t just another Halloween for me. While I was driving home, a vehicle struck my new car from behind, with a blow that sent me into the busy road. I fought hard to open my eyes for a second, but I lost consciousness (知觉).

After I was taken to hospital, the doctors told me I wasn’t going to be able to move anything from my neck down.

I had lost the use of almost every muscle and was very weak.

But at the rehab centre (康复中心), I saw a glimpse of hope and was inspired by other patients with injuries like mine.

The first year was slow and I didn’t see much progress. My head felt like a heavy ball and I couldn’t hold it up, and my blood pressure would drop all the time.

And while the idea of walking or even standing was out of the question, I sure did try.

Six months later, I was finally given the green light to return home.

However, that’s when the reality of the situation became clear to me.

I realized that my life was so different. I was unable to use a phone, and unable to feed or wash myself.

I couldn’t grip on to anything, a fork or spoon was too heavy to pick up.

I had to learn to be patient with myself, and to enjoy every moment going forward.

I was determined to walk again, so giving up was no longer a choice.

I fought hard on my recovery and still do to this day. I’m now moving my legs and arms on my own, doing things like working out, swimming, and yoga.

All of this is proving my doctors wrong, and is turning the page from the impossible to the possible.

My faith (信念), supportive family, friends, and team encourage me to continue to work harder.

I believe that this difficulty is an opportunity to grow, become stronger, and keep on fighting to hopefully inspire others not to give up.

I learned one lesson from my car accident: Never give up on faith, and never give up on hope.
