How old were you when you found out you were black?

When I was 18, I was involved in a motorcycle accident. Came off in the rain on a tight corner, hit the ground hard and broke my pelvis into quarters, suffered two compression fractures to my spine, busted every rib, collapsed my left lung, and suffered a bunch of internal bleeding.

I was paralysed below the waist initially, and was told I'd not walk again. 7 weeks in hospital on a spinal bed, I had movement and partial feeling back. 10 years on and I'm fully mobile, though with patchy sensation down my left side (and a completely numb penis).

So, nice to meetcha!

Thank you. Fortunately, it still works, it just makes intimacy a little less physically rewarding.

I was quite pleased with how it turned out :)
