I was literally two minutes away from Chick-fil-a when I was hit. After the accident I was emotionally distraught, I didn’t know what to do. My friends…

Most of the time, I identify myself as an average teenage girl. A girl that is not the best at driving and likes to eat a lot of Chick-Fil-A. But then I remind myself that I am not average; I am anything but average. I have already overcome major obstacles in my life that other students my age probably have never even thought about.

It was September 26, 2014, the night of the biggest high school football game in Albany, GA between Westover and Monroe. During my biology lecture class, my friend and I contemplated driving home for the game. I had not seen my sister cheer all last semester. I decided this would be the perfect time to surprise her.
