I suffered a bike / car / truck accident in 2013.
Riding my bike as a messenger, a driver opened their car door and I went flying into the street. Then, a truck ran over me.
I suffered a cracked skull, cracked vertebrae, broken shoulder blades, broken pelvis, 23 rib fractures and a punctured lung. Doctors said, I shouldn’t have survived. Two weeks after the accident I walked (poorly), but walked out of the hospital. I credit my yoga practice.
My yoga practice restored and restores me. I am grateful and humbled.
