Ok, seriously. In 2004, my fiance and I were both shot in a still-unsolved random shooting. We both survived our injuries but they were life-altering. @CaptainsLog2O18 @1IronMan2018 @StormResist @LunaLuvgood2017 @TheSWPrincess @1WarMachine2018 @1Jedi_Rey @BatmanResist @OriginalJLP @Elastigirl2018 @DanaScottLO @WillowResist @DavidYankovich @ScarletAvengers @catikins9 @ezralevin @B52Malmet @kathyhoffman_az @jarringcreation @JCTheResistance @DC_Resister_Bee @JanuaryAZ @2HawkEye2018 @GinnyRED57 @natasharesists @azmfol @indivisiblephx @IndivisibleofAZ @New2018World 2/ I sustained a spinal cord injury, so now I'm paralyzed and use a wheelchair full-time. He was shot in the head so now he's blind and has a significant brain injury. In that split second we became just TWO of the more than 300 people shot every day in the US
