Part 1:
"Love will find a way through paths which wolves fell prey" - Lord Bryon.
Ever imagine that some paths in life you wish you could change the way you took them. Some paths in life teach us the meaning of something else but the path I took taught me about true love, true meaning of life and it taught me to be a champion with a challenge.
I always had one wish. I wanted to be a doctor. My parents were a middle class working family and it was not possible for my parents to fund the bills of a doctor as they had to depend on other people but my parents always made it upto me by keeping my dream alive within me. and when I reached school, I realized that I could reach my dream being the most brilliant student that my school had ever seen and that is what had happen..
I got scholarships from all over the place and I was in my last year of college pursing my doctor bachelor degree and moving towards my medical school the next term. How happy had I been and so had my parents.. It was a dream come true.
The morning was brisk as I pathed my way down to the old road I would always take. Dressed in a white pants and black top with an ipod hanging down my ear, I was ready to attack the world with my virbrant self. I had always been this vibrant, artistic and obident child as my parents called it. If I was not pursing my dream of being a doctor, I would have been an artisit for sure.
So the morning was cold in New York. It was winter time and It should have been cold but it felt really cold that day..
As I made my way into the path I had always walked on or ran on, I felt a surge of numbiness around me. I fell right to the floor. I had not realized when and how had I fallen down on the floor as a car behind me seized over it's control and knocked me down into a bloodless slummber.
As I lay in the hospital bed, unaware of the world outside me, and being numb around me, I can feel people rushing over to myside hoping for my well being..
It's been 9 years since I have woken up from a peaceful slumbber but I am not the same person anymore. I can't walk nor can I run. The car had tumbled me over completly that I had a loss of feeling within in my legs. I can no longer pick myself or throw myself on the bed. In my family, and my parents, I am a burden as they have to take care of a coma waken girl who is nothing but a vegetable. I have a lost feeling all over for myself..
But many times, the path that we have ran or walked on ends up teaching us something about life in general... About love, about feelings, about caring for others.
Today.. I am what I am. I am someone who is been faced away from the world but I am starting over again.
I am going to London today to meet the most precious doctor in physical therapy and someone who can help me with my problems. - Dr. Armaan Malik.. and I have a gut feeling that London awaits me something..
I am Riddhima Gupta and this is my story...
