Writing is like the world's oldest profession.First u do it for your own enjoyment.Then u do it for a few friends.Eventually,u figure,what the hell,I might as well get paid for it.I am suppost never to be the last one.

The real sleeping beauty!

Yesterday, I watched BBC there was a report of real story of Sarah Scantlin happened in American,which shocked and moved me so much. I'd like to share with anyone else.The left side of two pictures were taken before and after accident.

Sarah Scantlin was born in 1966 .When she was 18-year-old and she was a leader in a dance team in her first year college study,as you can image, she was very beautiful,talent,....

Then one day a hit-and-run accident happened made her in semi-consiouse state for 20 years.

One evening in 1984 when she was with her classmates after celebrates,joyed,refresh on the way back home,Suddenly her car crashed with a car, her body immediately fled outside of car and stayed on the air, at that moment,another car quickly coming to hit on her head again,she was like a toy being hit and threw in any way then finally fell on the floor...it's really terrible.After accident, her parents have spent 20 years try to wake her up,and they've been went to different kinds of hospitals to do surgeries which cost them everything they have,they even sold their house and living in a caravan,which is a kind of cars so far.

In her first 17 years she livs in a social care agency and completely semi-consciouse,she couldn't fed herself to eat,to speak, even go to tolient,she couldn't do everything.In her recent 3 years, she became screaming day and night,which were huge noices and scared everybody she known.Whatever, her family become very closer since accident happened durning these years.

Then One evening, she waked up and spoke to her mother,her mother immediately rang to tell her best classmate...

Although she came back to the world ,she can't walk due to she haven't walked for 20 years, she only can stay on the wheel in a whole day, her thoughts was totally a 18-year-old girls'. It seems like she had a big sleep,after that when she waked up everything changed definitely.

Nowadays,she is 41-year-old, and she struggly try to recover,In 2007 she made a big step, she could fed herself encouraged her parents and everybody who loves her so much.It seems a slim of sunshine lights come through a hole in darkness.She hopes one day she can walk again,that's my wishes to her as well.
