When I was taken off the ventilator that's when I began to be aware of what was going on. My doctors were in and out of my room multiple times a day looking at me in awe saying "you're a miracle." Although, I surely didn't feel like a miracle at the moment I would soon realize how extremely lucky and blessed I was to still be on earth with my family and friends.
It was an extremely long and painful journey that lied ahead of me over the first six months after my wreck. I was told I might not ever walk again and if I did it would always be with a cane or I'd have a limp. At the time I was 19 years old and I was devastated because no 19
year old who has yet to start her life wants to hear these horrifying statements. I decided I was going to beat the odds and come out stronger than I ever have before. So many prayers were send up for me that i could feel power of prayer and the positive energy that was being radiated to me. I struggled so much in 2016 from learning how to walk again to being confident about the scars all over my body and face. I had to have so much faith and know that God had so many plans and purposes for my life.
I would get discouraged and feel down and angry at why this happened to me but little did i know this wreck was going to be my saving grace. After months of being in the hospital and rehab facilities to learn how to walk and be mobile again, I finally was able to go home. I began to seek God deeper and really dive into my purpose and His plan for me.
In 2017 I moved to Nashville where I knew I wanted to share my story, my experience and be a positive light to others that have been in a dark place. I wrote my first single, "Crossroads," with an amazing song writer,singer, producer and man of God, Mr. Ken Harrell. My song,
"Crossroads," tells my story through my eyes and my experience from the wreck. Writing this song I wanted my faith to show through it, I wanted it to be super positive and to allow people to know that even through the dark Gods light is still shining. God never leaves you nor will he abandon you in times of hurt and need. God always has angels around us for protection and although we cannot see Him, He is with us always.
"God never leaves you nor will he abandon you in times of hurt and need."
