Angel over me
it was August 30th 2015, it was a nice hot summer day. I got my first motorcycle , it was a Kawasaki ninja ZXR 600, extremely fast bike. Well me and my girlfriend we’re going down to Saint Jacobs at the time for a festival , We had a great day , then on the way back about five minutes away from home we were going around a bend down a two Lane Highway, it was very dark and it was a big long wide turn. I was going about 100 km an hour and then I see another car on coming head on in my lane around the corner , also doing 100 km an hour, I thought we were dead , my life flash before my eyes and the car hit us. I pulled the handlebars at the last second and hit my foot right off the bumper , the impact put my foot right through the peg of the bike, I broke my leg and disintegrated every bone in my foot. My girlfriend fell off the back of the bike and slid down the road doing 100 hundred kilometers an hour , it was very dark out there and was on a road with no street lights , I can hear other cars honking there horns and swerving around her as she was laying in the middle of the road , the cars could not see her until they were right up close and had just enough time to steer out of the way . She got road rash all the way down to the bones on her knees , elbows , hands and shoulders. I ran down the road and picked her up off the highway with a broken leg and disintegrated foot, through her over my shoulder and sat on the side of the highway , we hid of the side of the road in the tall grass to wait to see if anyone stopped , the people that hit us did . I could hear them yelling “ oh my god they were on a bike , I think we killed them “. They had called 911 , and within 5 min there was cops , ambulance and fire trucks everywhere , we were still hiding in the tall grass, both injured very bad . We were found by police canine , we both went to the hospital, I went for surgery immediately and she was stuck in bed for three months having nurses come change bandages every day . It was horrible , I thank my lucky stars that if it was two more inches over we would’ve supermaned right through the windshield and would’ve been killed instantly, I also was driving with no motorcycle license, after the hospital I was arrested and taken to jail . I felt so horrible about my girlfriend, to think I’m the one that hurt her. I ended up doing six months in jail for it, and have now and not been able to get a license for the past five years . I have $100,000 in provincial offences fines , it will be a long time before I think I can ever drive again, as for my girlfriend, we both recovered and we both healed up very well, we then later on ended up having a baby girl together. Her name is raelyn anabele and is now three years old , absolutely beautiful and doing very well. Me and her on the other hand aren’t together anymore we split up six days after our daughter was born, it’s a shame because I really wish things worked out. I feel we had an angel watching over us that night because I wouldn’t be here to tell this story if there wasn’t .
