After saying goodbye to my husband, who would leave for Brighton, I was walking back from the station at about 11 pm. It was only about five or 10 minutes from my house when a drunken driver hit me.

I was rushed to a hospital.My left knee was damaged in the accident.I used to do dancing and by the day of the accident I’d won many prizes in dancing competitions.But I haven’t danced since.
I still get a bit nervous walking in the street, especially if a car goes quite fast past me.The drunken driver who hit me was three times over the limit.He wasn’t young.I feel like asking him “Why? Why did you do it？” There’s no reason why anyone should drink and drive.I hope that he’s learned his lesson and that he’ll tell people what happened and he won’t let someone else make the same mistake.
