My Life Journey as a Survivor a true story

My Life Journey as a Survivor THE FOLLOWING IS BASED ON A TRUE STORY Hi, my name is Alvin, After playing basketball during high school, I had major plans for my future. During the year 1997 I became ill, which at first I thought was just a bad could or the flue, even so, I left for work one evening and collapsed unconscious outside the door of my employer. When I came to, I was in the emergency room. The doctors diagnosed me with having extensive food poisoning after eating Terioki chicken for lunch. The doctors gave a shot to treat the infection; unfortunately it was the wrong injection. I began having violent grandmal seizures back to back in the emergency room. When conscious, I told them to please make it stop! They gave me another shot to better control the seizures, but they never treated the initial infection nor were they able to stop the seizures.

I hadn’t seen nor heard of anything like it in my life. As Mr. Greg Lemond was being interviewed. He spoke of recovering from a car accident, his age, his will, and determination to return to the sport he enjoyed. Just then, something amazing happened, I decided to completely give up the sport of basketball and pursue cycling, not realizing it was going to help me get better. I didn’t have a bike of my own. I sought out books and magazines on dietary essentials for cyclist and how to build a road race bike, like the ones I saw on TV. I took on little jobs here and there, cleaning windows and washing cars. While building my first Shwinn Prolog Road Time Trial bike from scratch, The frame was dented and rusted it needed a lot of work. After I finished painting and building the bike I soug read more...
