Narrative Essay On Car Crash

Superior Essays
In the world there are five senses. There's taste, smell, vision, hearing, and touch. All of these are in most people's lives, except me. Well, at least until now. My eyes start to open slowly, trying to remember what happened, but that topic changed quickly. I was very thirsty, so I tried to stretch my arm out to get a cup of water, but nothing--nothing--moved. I started to panic, wondering what happened that night, but I didn’t get any answers until I figured them out myself.
Ultimately, the doctor arrived at my room, but she had a numb look on her face, and I knew there was something wrong. “ I am deeply--truly--sorry, but when you crashed both of your parents got extremely hurt. When we got to the crash, your mom was already dead, and your father, well, he bled out in the ambulance.”
“What do you mean, crash--I thought I fell? Wait, so you're telling me that I got in a car crash and my parents died!” I wanted to run away and cry my eyes out, but that was not an option anymore, so I laid there still as a statue looking at the ceiling because there was no other option. “I want to meet them.” “Who, who do you want to meet?” “ I want to meet the people that crashed into us.” My anger was boiling up inside of me like a pot on a stove,

It went perfectly and I was awake in one day. The doctor said that I needed to do some testing first to make sure you can control the legs right. So, they took me into a room and started to drill a hole into my head, but they numbed me first. They put in the device and closed me up. Then, they took me into another room where there was a leg hanging on this pole. They instructed me to imagine walking and thinking as hard as I could. The leg just sat there. They said that was fine and it takes lots of practice. I tried it again and the same result. I knew it was hopeless--I had to keep trying, not giving up for anything. Besides, it was too late

    The five senses are the important, but some people take them for granted. If I had to choose one to live without I'd choose taste. In 2005, Duncan Boak lost his sense of smell after a brain injury. Since smell and taste are closely linked his taste was impacted as well. "It's so hard to explain but losing your sense of smell leaves you feeling like a spectator in your own life, as if you're watching from behind a pane of glass, it makes you feel not fully immersed in the world around you and it sucks away a lot of the color of life.…

    The five main senses are something that can be seen as simple, but complicated at the same time. Every single day of your entire life your senses have not only made you aware of your surroundings, but has also made connections and memories through what you see, smell, taste, touch and hear. All work together to make life something more than it really is. Throughout learning about every single sense, you can see the consistency of how our senses work together to understand safe and hazardous things of life.

    If I had to lose any of my five sense I would lose my sense of smell. It’s not a matter of what sense I want to lose but which four senses I would want to keep the most. I listen to music every single day, on my way to school, when I’m doing homework, when I’m at home as a type of pastime; I would simply not be able to live my life without enjoying music. To lose my sense of touch I would not be able to feel the warmth of my blankets on cold nights or feel the hugs I receive from my mother or the oddly satisfying brushing of grass against my shoe whenever I walk, simple pleasures like these would become missing from my life, and alongside missing music, my life would become mundane. Without my sense of smell, I would not be able to taste many…
