I’ll never forget the sounds of metal crashing into metal; glass breaking; unidentifiable structures crunching. I’ll never forget the feeling of completely losing control; of my vehicle being hurdled toward and then ricocheting off a guardrail; flipping and tumbling through the air; somehow landing right-side-up in a thorny ditch. I’ll never forget the impossible weight of my car door that day and somehow being able to push myself out of it —my vision so obscured, not knowing whether I was exiting to land or water.
