I flipped my car 2.5 times on the turnpike, crushing all windows and landing on my roof. A shard of glass measuring 3.5 inches pierced my neck coming within a quarter inch of my Carotid Artery. I delusion ally climbed out of the passenger's side window (the roof was touching the bottom of the window on the driver's side) and passed out on the right lane of traffic around a blind turn and was almost hit by a tractor trailer. The driver, who was with his daughter, blocked off traffic so no other car could potentially hit me. He later told me he was within two feet if running me over. A woman on the opposite side of the turnpike jumped the median and pulled me to the side of the road and called an ambulance. When my parents arrived at the hospital the doctor's told them they didn't think I would make it. Somehow, and in thanks to the kindness of strangers, I'm still alive and have the scars and stones in my body to prove it.
Edit: the resulting injuries were a sprained neck and back, 3 broken ribs, various lacerations, and poison ivy. The EMT who pulled me to the side of the road accidentally laid me in poison. Wasn't fun in a neck and back brace. Both the EMT and the trucker sent me get well cards and flowers and the EMT even visited me at my parent's home a few weeks after I was discharged.

The problem is I'm a med student, I dont have time to make websites. My experience is with AOL profiles (lulz). I want to provide him with a steady and regular clientele that wants sculptures. And he has been sculpting for 25 years in multiple mediums. He just needs a patron base or a job at another hotel who needs an Executive Chef.
