BOOM! And its all over....

It was the day..Dec 17th 2007. When my life completely changed.
The day of which I cant remember anything.
The day in which I never knew what happened.
Yeah it was the day when my life changed.
The way I walk, The alterations which came into my body, The day when people around me saw me in bed.

Screeeech! *brakes*
What Crap am I talking about?Though that the above was totally insane.It was true :)

Here it starts.
The day starts , I woke up in bed (as usual) and what the F?! Am i in Ripley's believe it or not or either in Guinness World records.!I was not on my bed! I woke up to see a X-Ray which my doctor and My dad (who is also a doc) holding up to the light and observing very closely,in which a bone was very strange, fixed with all kinda metallic stuff and what more could i ask for?i couldnt feel my half of my body below my waist.! With my right leg totally wrapped with some kinda shit. I could see my mum in tears *Poor Mum* next to me and Brother standing next to the window, totally innocent. And yeah i forgot about the nurses around, nursing me :)

All of them around got to know that I have got up, they looked into my eyes like i was a poor lil kitten stuck in a tree! and Me in total shock asked 'er...what happened?'
The doctor said i had met with a 'small' accident which was totally wrong!
I asked my dad the same thing, He told me that i had fallen from the bike unknowingly.
So he told my leg was just fractured.Which i never believed his story. I couldnt really think of what happened that day.
Until One my friends who told me, Friends were all with me when i met with the accident.It was the day when i was leaving the hospital, after 3 days hard days without moving, Without eating Solids, having more than 30 tablets a day, and more than 5 injections.Dad was busy paying cash for the discharge. My friend,Kevin who had come to see me was next to me. I asked him 'Temme what happened?' He said straight forward that a truck went over you!and i, i was like.. 'Dude, C'mon!'.
Here starts the real story.As told be me and my so called "Trusty" friends.Dec 17th , I had got up (on my bed and i got up in my Bed this time!)got ready to attend college. Ready and out, as usual i went to Kevin's place to pick him up and to college. It was a bright sunny day, and atmosphere in college was Fun and Frolic with College day Enthusiasm all around. My friends who had formed a band to sing out a song on the occasion. It was time to get all the needed instruments for the band. We got permission from the principal to get it from a church (Which was quite far away from college) and guess what, we left! 2 Bikes and 6 guys! yeah were going 3 on a bike :) on the way we took kevin's Car to keep our instruments and we finally reached the place! Packed our things ,left back to college. I took my friends bike (who is no longer my friend),gave my bike to another friend and started goin together with the 2 bikes and the car following us.
Now, its almost done. I dono what struck into my mind, I gave the throttle like a mad bafoon to overtake a truck in a conjested road! When i was half way through the truck, OMG! A car is parked in front of me ! The brakes were supposed to work right?yeah it did, and it did too much, so much that the applied brakes never came to a stop.! I had it, i had to drift below the moving truck :( My friend who was with me, Unfortunately had jumped off before anything could happen.and the bike on me and the truck which was on my right leg. My Friends who were totally Scared, shocked and what not!? To my luck i had Kevins Car, i was shifted to a local hospital and after i was switched places to Apolo hospital, Where i was treated.
For my leg.It was treated with 12 wounds on it and 3 on my hand. 9 stitches , I had fractured my bone, which was my knee (The hardest bone in the body) was broken into 3 pieces, which was to fixed back with the help of 3 screws,dislocated shoulder and finally Internal Bleeding inside my head which we never knew until my head was CT scanned.yeah thats it! dont think of more.!For the pain part the leg never hurt me :) And the pain in my head was like nothing in the whole of this earth!Fortunately, Everything is actually cured now.and My knee will not be 100% cured.(The X Ray is attached to blog)
Now its been many days after it has happened. Did i learn a lesson?! nah! i still am the same old Nikhil :)
