I’d graduated from college just two months earlier and relocated (搬家) to Chicago to work there. I barely knew Chicago, but luckily, my co-workers were friendly. We became so close that 13 of us spent a weekend together at the lake and rented a boat.On our last morning, I wanted to get back into the boat after swimming for a bit. But as I approached it, a force pulled me in. Within seconds, the lower half of my body was stuck between the boat’s propellers (螺旋桨). I reached down as the water around me turned deep red. Instead of feeling the flesh of my leg, my hand touched exposed muscle and bone.It took nearly 45 minutes for help to arrive. Until then, a few of my friends worked together to keep me alive. The next morning, I woke up in a hospital room. I later learned that when I arrived at the hospital, a team of 20 specialists tried to save my leg, but the damage was too extensive (广泛的). They amputated it above the knee. At least I’m alive, I thought.One year, six major surgeries (手术), and countless hours of physical therapy later, I began to walk again. I tried my best to be upbeat (乐观的) and positive while relearning to walk, but even the simplest tasks made me frustrated. Sometimes, I just thought “Why me?”I continue to try to embrace my new life, but I’ve had to make adjustments. I’d actually been training for the Chicago half-marathon before the accident. I still plan to get back into training for it, but for now, I’m just grateful I can walk.I avoided showing my prosthetic leg (假肢) in public at first, but now, I wear shorts and dresses, whether I’m going out with friends or heading to the office.
