Scariest Day of My Life.

(sorry its long, I have a hard time keeping out detail when I'm explaining something)

Today started off like any other school day. Wake up to the alarm clock, mumble to yourself about how tired you are and you don't want to go to school but just sleep for another few hours...put on ur makeup(girls), do your hair, head off to school to make your classes.
It's after lunch and 5th period comes around. My weights class teacher is gone to a cross country meet so we have a substitute so everyone decides to be lazy after they get their five lifts in for the day. Weights started normal as well, nothing unusual. I wore shorter shorts than usual in the co-ed weights class for the first time today and it didnt go unnoticed. The boys were lookin haha but I was the only other girl in the class. I get my lifts in, go into the gym for a fresh drink of water, come back to the weights room and just go to the end of the room and lean up against the wall by a couple of my friends who were done, also.
There was just me, tanner sitting next to me in the window frame, josh to his left and kadyn smith to my right. They pick up one of those 20-25lb medicine balls and start passing it between us. Kadyn tosses it to josh and it lands at his feet so he kicks it and I wasnt really looking but by the time I looked back my head got slammed into the brick wall close behind me and went into shock. after a few miliseconds of darkness I wake to my eyesight being dark around the edges, everything else around me blurry and I am uncontrollably falling to the ground and there is not a thought in my mind or any driving force trying to stop me from falling. I just watched the ground move slowly toward me (those hollywood movies werent making it up when everything goes slow-motion after a bash like that) and I couldnt hear anyone around me. I hadn't seemed to really fall foreward until after I landed on my knees (which I hadn't realized I'd done til afterwards when someone told me I slid to the ground rather than fell) then noticed I was slowly turning my head to the left as I was coming closer to the floor and saw my hands fold down beside my body. As I was in this leant foreward position the feeling of pricks (the feeling you get when your foot or hand is waking up from numbness) covers my entire body including my head but it was a muted feeling, still. I was still in panic as this sensation was not coordinated with my eyesight. In other words it felt like the rest of my body was behind what I was actually seeing. By the time my head weightlessly hit the floor I had already physically been lying down...if you've ever been in shock you know exactly what im talking about. So by now the sounds around me became very apparent but I couldnt respond to anyone trying to get my attention. My eyes were locked in one position towards the floor and the first thought to cross my mind was "oh my god, im paralyzed." I tried for what seemed like an hour to move my hand or even get my eyes off their locked gaze so i could see what was going on around me. I felt like there was something around me not allowing me to move but finally I forced myself to try really hard which was almost painful to lift my elbow enough to get my hand to slap down on the floor in front of my gaze. Next obstacle was moving my eyes and speaking. Everyone kept asking "are you okay?" over and over again, finally I blinked and practically yelled "Just hold on!" I hadn't realized how hard I was really trying to talk then it finally just came out and I was able to use my numb legs to push just enough to roll me onto my back. That sent the mute feeling out of the box and I could feel all the feeling coming back as the very noticable tingling sensations finally faded away with every movement. All this happened in a matter of seconds, but as I said before, it felt like forever. I thought I was gone.
As I looked up from my new position I brought my knees up so that I wasn't lying flat anymore, it made me nervous. I looked to my left around the room and nobody else had noticed but a couple of my other friends who came over to help; not even the sub noticed. I don't blame em cuz of the loud music though it was kinda dumb one of the people in the group hadn't said something to the teacher in that whole twenty seconds of absolute agony. Once I looked straight up again the other girl in the class, Maddi, asked me if I was okay and just said "I hope so". She helped me up and told me I needed to find somewhere to sit down. By now it was time to clean up and I quickly fell to the seat in front of her desk and put my head down. I said "you have no idea what just happened do you?" she said "no? what happened?" "I just got knocked out, I think im gonna pass out" I still couldnt feel any pain but I knew something was going on. I reached back to feel my head and see if it cracked or anything and there was a giant goose egg on the bottom left side of my head. I let the others explain what happened cuz I was having a hard time concentrating and they just helped me up and took me to the front of the weight room doors, had me lay down on the gym floor to get blood moving again and went and got some help. They kept asking me questions and I kept muttering stuff and just couldn't remember anything about my locker or if I even had clothes to get. The P.E. teacher who was in the gym asked me for my moms cell and I almost couldnt remember that but I got it out and by now the head pains were starting to kick in. My mom and dad were there in about five minutes and took me to the hospital. Turns out I have a pretty good concussion and I have to be closely monitored for the next few days. Tonight we came to learn I also have whiplash but I cant remember how I was positioned to get that, It just gives me that stinging sensation when i touch the center of my colar bone or the front of my neck.
I was going to try and rest when I got home but I was afraid to fall asleep when everytime I got close, my body would go numb and I couldnt tell if I was even breathing. So the fear wasnt worth it. I got up, fought my headache and asked my mom why the heck I couldnt sleep. Anywayz none of the lifeless details matter.

That's my story of today, the scariest day of my life...and hopefully I'll get better quickly...I shouldnt even be on the computer right now, my head has been throbbing sense I looked at the screen. (and yes the goose egg is still there and turns out I bled a little) So I may be even more lifeless for the next few days and if I keep getting on here or doing a lot of physical activity it could turn into a couple weeks so yeah I'm gonna go now. Good news is I dont have to go to school tomorrow and will probably get to miss work on Saturday.

alright you can take a sigh of relief now, im done. im goin to get my ice pack.
