kevins a blessing. god gave him a second chance, he is very lucky. he is such a strong person, and he definitely is an inspiration! stay strong kevin!
You're a great guy with a great family. Your future is bright. Accidents like this show what a person is made of, you are made of strong stuff. You still have your personality, you memory, your brain, you are still you, and you are one cool guy!
Sorry to hear of your accident, but you seem to have great head on your shoulders. Life changes in the blink of an eye, I know from my own experience. Wishing you only the best health. Billy
Just wondering. Was Kevin wearing a seat belt at the time of the accident? He didn't say that he wasn't wearing a seat belt, although the video text says that he didn't.
@RebelRay Kevin was sleeping in the back of the truck. He had no seatbelt on. So when they hit the patch of ice, he was flung from the car. A seatbelt would most likely have prevented the majority of his serious injuries. It certainly tells the importance of always wearing your seatbelt while in a car.
For what it's worth, Kevin, if you have experienced some of the "stand-offishness" of "able-bodied" people since your accident and are looking for a way to interact with people in a way that presents no limitations based on physical mobility (or appearance, deafness, etc.) you should look into Second Life. It's a virtual 3D world where people are represented by avatars. Many thousands of people worldwide inhabit this online virtual world and they are growing in number each day.
I remember reading something a few weeks ago, seems like this wonderful young man must have heard it years ago, it was something like "no matter how bad a situation is, if you face it with a good attitude, it makes a world of difference" I hope he never loses his wonderful nature :)
i was in an accident in 2002 wearing no seat belt either thankfully i am lucky and able to walk i cant imagine how if something happened to me. now i wear a seat belt when i am in a car, i learned my lesson
