The Rejected Bride
"There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you." —
Maya Angelou
Chapter 48
I didn’t regain consciousness for several days. I had suffered a subarachnoid haemorrhage from my head injury which, left untreated, could have led to paralysis or death.
Thankfully, Jacobi and his team were able to control and reduce the swelling, and there had been no damage to my brain.
They were also able to tackle the internal bleeding from my abdominal trauma. I was lucky to have escaped with no permanent damage to not only my brain and internal organs, but also my face, save for some lacerations on my brow and lips.
