I wish I had a 6 for this one. Your vivid description of her injury pulled me into this horrific and well written entry into this horror writing contest. I could feel the pain as though it were me. Great work with this and I sincerely wish you all the bes in this contest.

My vivid real description is what I suffered in an accident in 1982. Thanks so much for reading, and the good wishes. Love, K.

This meets the contest requirements nicely as you deliver a well penned horror story within the word count allotted. It was very clever to use a real-life experience to convey the essence of genuine terror to the readers. Good luck in the judging and thank you very much for sharing it.

Good luck in the contest Kace. As a nurse myself, I can not begin the imagine what your emotions were. The pain, the anguish, the horror of the news which I am sure was daily. I agree with your narrative notes-not bad for your age. Well done.

G'day my friend, Never thought about it happening to me. Who does really? I survived by looking at myself as a patient I was caring for. Thank you for reading. Love, Kace.

That is indeed a good philosophy for giving self care. You are most welcome.
Comment from Debbie Pope
Wow, Aussie! This is quite a horror tale. I kept scrolling back to the category trying to make this story fiction. I am so sorry that this happened to you. You tell the story so graphically. I was hanging on to every word. There are lots of things that caught my attention. One is that you felt no pain at the accident. The pain started with all the operations. Seems like doctors put you through so much unnecessary pain. I'm sure it's hard for doctors to know when to give up on a leg.
I'm glad the "save the leg" part of your life is over, but you say that you only walk a little. That is good, but sounds like you are wheel chair bound most of the time. I sure admire your spunk.
Thank you for sharing your story. This horror tale deserves a six star rating because it is exceptional. I'm fresh out though.

Hello Debbie, Fate has her way with all of us. Yes, I have an electric wheelchair, my real leg is wearing out. Thank you for reading my friend. Love, K.

Bless your heart. You're right. We're really not in control of our lives.
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written horror story about the accident and the amputation of your leg is a horrific experience in itself. When the hospital and its staff make the experience more horrific it is traumatic.

Hi Sandra, Thanks so much for reading. I could of added more graphic incidents, however, I thought what I wrote covered most of my horror stay in hospital. Love, K.
Comment from Darlene Franklin
You made this event that happened 37 years ago sound like it was happening in the moment, expepriencing it with you. Thank you for telling us the rest of the story. Bravo to you, to have survived and apparently thrive in spite of the horrible accident and aftermath.
I had never heard of motorcyclists as "temporary citizens." That was enough to give me shivers.
