Losing Everything but my life

June of 2004 I had been on a rampage drinking, I had been a drinker before this. I had a nice home I had built and designed for me and my now ex-wife she had left me because we both had a problem with drugs but from what she says I went off Christmas morning of 2003 and she had enough. She took my 8 year old son and went to stay with her sister at Fort Cambell,Kentucky and filed for divorce so in June I had been dating this slut and she was going to break up with me because her sister said I was at a bar buying this other girl drinks but that was not true at the time I owned my own business and had a brand new home on 20 acres of land,so I was always buying for eveyone. That night my best friend dropped me off and new what was going on and told me to stay home well I didn't listen went to Pub 44 and tried to make up for something I didn't even do. Now that I think about it really hard that was stupid I could have had anyone, it boils down that I might not have SEX one night! So I started drinking anything and everything and drove home, I had no valid drivers license either. I was going they say 90,it really doesn't matter because I was impaired. I ended up going through a turn the only problem is I didn't turn and took out 3 telephone poles, had to be air-lifted and was in a coma for 3 months with a broken pelvis,8-13 broken vertabrates in my back so I ended up being in a turtle shell for 6 months to a year after being released plus having right anterior lobe damage to my BRAIN. In another words I have my life THANK THE LORD but I lost everything I had worked so hard for, for 5-10 years. So think about a taxi or just not even going and doing it.Luckily no one else was on the road or I probably would have killed them.
