Based on what my Mother's told me since, I had just turned nine when the accident occurred. I was hit by a car while out riding my bicycle in the neighborhood. I don't remember much about the accident itself, I was too young and time heals such unpleasant memories by allowing them to fade away.

I was a young and aspiring actor at the age of 18 when I thought I'd been given my shot at the big time, having been doing local plays for several years, I'd finally been invited to a stars' gathering to celebrate the New Year, where all the movers and shakers were.

Cycling home from school about eight years ago at his usual break neck speed, he took a bend too quickly and crashed into a car. He suffered a fractured femur and had severe abdominal injuries. I was telephoned at work with news of the accident and I then rushed to his bedside at the local sick kids hospital. There I met Amanda, my wife who was clearly visibly upset.
