A drunk driver had swerved into my lane on a windy country road.”
Then he talks about assessing his injuries. He recalls thinking about his feet pointing the “right way” and being able to move his head, indicating he was alive. He says, “After doing a systems check and finding that my only injury was to my hand I thanked my lucky stars that I’d still be there to celebrate her third birthday even if I couldn’t make her cake. I’m fine, but it’s gonna be a long road to recovery, and for someone like me who makes a living with my hands you can imagine that this is no joke.” But his priorities seem straight even in the face of difficulties. Duff knows he is a “lucky one” to be able to live through a drunk driving accident.
