I did. I was almost about to die then if I wasn't rescued by fellow passenger.
I was about to rode on a jeepney when suddenly a taxi bumped me that my left leg was almost broke. My right leg was up already, but my left leg came late that it was hit by the taxi.

Prior to that, I waited a jeepney for almost 30 minutes, the one passing by where not going to the place I was heading to. I got bored so I stopped the aproaching jeepney to take it. Then the accident happen.

I was brought to a near hospital and was given a first aid only, until one day it was infected terribly and I was sent back to the hospital. For 10 days I was hospitalized. On the first day, the doctor made an unforgiven mistake to diagnose my leg was need to be cut off as what they have seen in the x-ray result. I was scheduled for operation within 8 years hours. When all the scheduled doctors for my operation visited before the operation, they have found out that the intern made a mistake to point me as the patient for the said operation. Instead, it was a diabetic patient aged 42 years old and I was 21 years old then. It was a divine intervention.

As I recall the incident, If I had continued in waiting a jeepney to my route and I let this jeepney passed me again and while waiting I had hit by the taxi, I might have been a victim of hit and run or was left dead; and if I was operated mistakenly as diabetic patient I could be a lady with one leg today.

What about you? do you have unforgettable experience or major accident encountered in your life?

Yes, I have. I was ten years old and visiting my father for a couple weeks in the summer. He was going to take me camping in a camper trailer that my grandfather was rewiring. Once he was done we were off. It was too late to go swimming that night so I went to bed in my swimsuit, haha! However, I was awakened by an explosion as the stove erupted beside the bed. My grandfather had not hooked the propane up correctly and when he went to make coffee a backdraft explosion occurred. I had 1st, 2nd, and 3rd degree burns on 83% of my body and I was extremely lucky to survive. My grandfather only made it two more days before he passed away. I was in the hospital for 2 and a half months and still have scars and my scalp itches if I am in the sun too long. I have a deep fear of fire and I dont know that that will ever fade.
