Journal entry by Jenna Schleifer —
Ok...pretty sure everybody that 'knows' me knows for the most part as to what's going on with me!! But...on Sept 17 of 2008 I was In a deadly 'accident! I apparently jumped out of a truck that was going 55mph! And he was my boyfriend at the time! We were together for I don't know how long, but were engaged. Drunkenly engaged! I never got a ring, and we never did any planning! Was great that we never got carried away with it! I think he wasn't fully divorced from his last lady that left him! Anyways.... I landed on the highway from falling from the truck. So he ended up turning around, stopped to pick me up and put me back in his truck! I m knocked out, and in his words, I was filling his truck with blood He said this to police, he didn't want blood in his truck! So he pulled over, on a dark country road, got me out of his truck, and pulled me into the ditch! And left me there unconcious, bleeding heavily, and he drove away! After a bit of time, a lady was curious about the blood! Which I'm sure others saw it, assuming it was from a deer being drug into a ditch! Well this girl stopped to check it out! Finds me there, she calls those 3 numbers to let them know! They get there! I was given a 1-3% chanceto live! I guess they were unsure if they should even turn the sirens on...thinking I had no chance!! Well, they alarmed in! Doctors got to me, said the same thing with the 1-3% put a stint on my head to I dunno! To decrease the size My family got there as soon as ty hey heard!
