First time I was driving a 26ft box truck and blacked out. Not drug related. I went into on coming traffic for about 1000 yards. Luckily I only hit the fence and a wall. Didn’t hurt anyone except my self. Totally fractured my face. I was out of town working. Spent 8 days in the trauma ward. Well almost 5 years to the day. I was in my motorcycle wreck. I’m in constant pain. I did something stupid October 1st 3 months after motorcycle wreck. I overdosed on fentanyl.Not on purpose. I just don’t think I will ever be normal whatever that is every one says wow you cheated death 3 times. Sometimes I feel death cheated me

I am so sorry for all your pain. The constant pain is awfully hard to deal with. I understand too about your “death cheated me” statement. I get it. I am so sorry.
