Today is one of the Memorial Day for me and my family in my life. This is not wonderful day for us, but May 22nd is we cannot forget in my life.
It was life changing status for my life. I had a bicycle crash with 20ft truck at Mandai Road (Singapore) at around 11.30 AM and this traffic accident that led to me to become disable person for my whole life. I become quadriplegia and I lost most of my function.
I have experience to near death for two time in hospital at year 2011 and by the grace of God today I am still alive and staying together with my wife and son. Although I have limited movement for mobility I still can see, talk, eat and make other people happy or can suggest from my view.
At first time, I am not ready to accept for myself that I am going to be like this forever and I have depress for a while. I think that I become abandon to everyone, especially to my closets family and they have to take care of me for their whole life. Actually it was not easy for them and still they need to hire for me full-time care giver.
But one day when I watch the movie that Christopher Reeve (Super Man) made after his spinal cord accident, he show us how importance to be alive in family life. So that it won’t feel absent and we can be still around in our family life. I had learned what is meaning of being still alive from his latest movie. And I can see from the family point of view.
We still can stay together, celebrate the birthday party, pray together and fight together for our son future. The best part of my life is, we still can help other who was more unfortunate than us and preparing for ourselves how are we going to end in this life.
On May 22nd 2017 one of the world famous guy, Nicky Hayden was meet with tragic a bicycle crash with car and died. He is one of my idol and admire person in my life as well. What a big call for me to realize, how we are precious has been a live. On 17th May, he was hit by a car while riding his bicycle doing his exercise in Italy and suffered brain injury and died after five days.
He was professional motorcycle racer and who won the MotoGP World Championship in 2006. What a big lost for his family and world. But as for me nothing to compare like him but one thing I am bless is I am still alive and staying together with my family. Everyone will miss him and especially his family member.
As for me, I thanks to God firstly for everything that he bless me until today and ask from him that many more to come for the better one in my future. And secondly my family member that who supporting me daily and thank you for all the benefactor that who supporting me with physical, mental and spiritual well-being.
Thank you everyone and hope enjoying your days and countless blessing from God.
