Falling in Target without breaking my fall, it was terrible, I ended up spending a week in the hospital after surgery and three more weeks in a nursing facility for rehab.

The first day or two that I was there I was in a lot of pain, scared, etc., and annoyed that most of the people around me had such heavy accents that I couldn’t understand them. It took me only halfway into the second day to realize that they knew 2 languages and I only knew one, and I was the problem, I tried to learn Spanish from that point on.
