Black

So for May 15, in the morning, some detail left out...

unexpectedly in the crosswalk a car turned and ran into the author.

The author's head cracked the windshield...

then bounced off the front of the hood unto the street on the right side. The impact was felt, then...

black filled the consciousness (and not the first time in life)

In that state a quick conversation seemingly in the head or conscious ensued: "Killed?" a very short pause, "No, send back", said another voice. Not even four seconds passed. The crosswalk sign I saw was still counting down.

Awoke lying on the road on the right side, pain in both ribs and knees.

Was facing the car which had stopped. Became concerned that the driver might panic and

run, in which case I was still lying in front of the car a few feet away. I had to get up!

Fortunately, the driver did not panic and started the process toward recovery. My cell phone was destroyed.

The driver called for EMS on their cell phone after a quick conversation.
