They said that I was probably never going to walk or talk again. And even if I did, it would be very, very limited.
00:00:05
And it was going to take a very long time. All I heard was I was never going to walk or talk again. And the arrogance
00:00:10
inside of me was, "No, no, no, no. I'm not going to put up with this." And it
00:00:14
wasn't against them. It was more towards myself. And numbers don't lie, though,
00:00:17
right? I wasn't even supposed to survive, let alone walk again. You know, they they told my parents and everyone
00:00:23
that I wasn't going to make it. So, you better come and pay your final respects
00:00:26
cuz he's he's going to die. And then they were supposed to cut my right arm
00:00:29
off, my right leg. Fortunately for my dad, he was in there saying he's no he
00:00:33
either dies whole or you wait until he wakes up. Cuz he knew he knew the type of person I was. Oh, he he didn't want
00:00:38
to make the decision on your behalf. No, cuz if I wake up and I had no arm and no
00:00:42
leg, I would have been pissed. I know it. I wouldn't be where I am today. I'll
00:00:46
tell you that.
