Sharing a story, for everyone who will hear.?

On June 17,2005 a tragic accident happened, an accident that changed a little girl’s life. She did not know that this particular day would forever haunt her memories.
It started out like any other day, Tamra climbed out of bed, put on her bathing suit and headed downstairs. As she approached the kitchen she paused so that she could hear the conversation going on inside. She could only catch one word being said "birthday" and at that moment a smile grew across Tamra’s face. She knew secretly behind that door her mom and her aunt were talking about her. You see Tamra was turning twelve in a couple weeks and she had not yet decided what she wanted. That left her mom guessing as to what to give her for a gift. After a few seconds of eavedropping had gone by and she had not been hearing anything more, she entered the kitchen. At first there was an awkward silence but it was broken by the sounds of a jet ski buzzing out on the lake. When Tamra heard this noise she jerked up and bolted out the door to the lake.
When at the lake she saw a yellow jet ski on the shore welcoming her to ride. She thought a little zip around would’nt hurt. So she put on her life jacket, hopped on the jet ski and sped off. After about five minutes she noticed that the other jet ski that had broken the silence was being ridden by her older sister Bria .Bria signaled for her to come over to her. She hesitated before she finally did what she asked. She told her that he wanted to play a game of tag on the jet ski’s. Tamra’s reply was "You’re it" and then she sped off splurting water all over Bria. At this Bria came after her playfully . Slowly he started to catch up, until he was side by side with her. Sarah didn’t notice that he was there. Land was twenty feet away and if she didn’t turn she would get stuck. At the moment she turned she saw the look on her sisters face. Sarah cound’t believe it they had just collided but that was the least of her worries. She was worried about her sister and her leg for some reason was in pain. That pain was so unbearable that she passed out.
A few days later she woke up in the hospital with an IV on her arm and a cast on her leg. It took her a couple of minutes to remember what had happened. A doctor entered the room and told her "You are a lucky little one you were so close to dying". She asked the doctor about her brother and he told her "No serious injuries but as for you, well……… im sorry but you will never be able to walk normally ever again
After that that little girl told herself "I will prove that doctor wrong".
In January 2009, After many surgery’s and continuous exercising that girl could finally walk normally again and here she is today sharing her story to you all.
