"Last month on the 25th November I nearly lost my life coming back from New York. When the police came they thought there will be no one alive. When we went to the hospital they were shocked that we was alive. God is so good!
"I am so glad to end the year here. The car flipped over multiple times. The airbag didn’t come out. Hit my chest multiple times on the steering wheel, sprained my shoulders, neck, hurt my hip, knees, and ended up with a brain concussion.
