My condition now is ok. Keep in mind that this accident I had was 26 years ago.

My hair has receeded and I have two visible scars on my temples from where I had a halo brace. I prefer people to ask rather than stare.

I can't turn my head all the way to the side like you can. I cannot touch my chin to my shoulder.

I can get bad headaches at times and I have a very high tolerance to any opiates.

I prefer people to ask rather than stare.

I've had a surgical scar on my face since I was 14--that was 30 years ago--and I have yet to have anyone ask about it. Do people actually ask you?
