Chapter Closing

I’ve been away for a couple of weeks. This is something that I’ve wanted to write about for just over 3 years now (I had another blog before).

**Disclosure – This isn’t a sex based or kink entry. I’ll be back to regular posting very soon***

3 years ago, I was in a serious car accident, I was a passager in my friends SUV. A small car ran a red light, slammed into my side and caused us to spin. I don’t remember much from the accident, I just remember the lights before it happened.

I won’t go into the details but the recovery except that it was hell. I was self-employed student and since I didn’t have employer benefits and the public insurance company here treats you like crap, I was nearly homeless and struggled. I couldn’t work for over 4 months, had to get a crappy job and suffer in pain to avoid being out on the street.  After a few months of trying to handle this on my own, I got a lawyer who helped me get necessary treatment and deal with the stress. Today, I’m a lot better but I’m not 100%. There is a lot of emotion around it. Anger, sadness, regret but it takes time to deal with those. My close friends have helped me through a lot of it and without them, I don’t know if I would have been able to survive. They were there for me whether I needed the emotional support or simply an escape from all of this. Kink played a big role in this as well as it was the one activity that I could do (modified) that gave me the peace, endorphins and happiness that I needed.

I wasn’t allowed to share this before due to the legal aspect, which is finally over. Today, it’s finally done.

I’m disappointed at how the legal system works here. I had a great lawyer but unfortunately the system isn’t designed to compensate people for what they lost and had to deal with. I have enough to continue with my medical treatments and to pay off the debts that happened since then. A marginal amount to treat a couple of the people close to me but that’s about it. A good part of the past 3 years of my life went into recovering and the fight. Now, I’m ready to move on and re-start building the life that I want. It’s a different picture then it was before but now just to figure out a way to get there.

Thank you for your patience with my absense from this blog, e-mails and social media. As most could image, I needed the past bit to deal with all of this and complete the legal aspects. I’m looking forward to getting back to writing about my life, reviews and more. Finally, I don’t have to worry about censoring it for anyone.
