I had an accident that nearly caused me to die

I had an accident that nearly caused me to die, it happened last week. I’m in my early 20’s and was running in the woods when suddenly I felt a sharp pain in my leg. I tried to go to the doctor, but he was unable to do so because it was in a different part of my leg. I’m still in agony. I had to go to a specialist to have this checked out, who told me that the problem was in my tibial nerve. This is where I broke my leg. So it was time for me to get serious about this. I went to an urgent care to get an IV in me, I was already sedated but the doctor told me to go ahead with the operation. The procedure was to numb the leg, remove the leg and stitch it. I went to the operating room to have this done. It was a painless procedure but after that, the pain gradually went away. After the procedure was completed, I was able to walk again and my leg was very sore. I took the rest of the week off to rest, I was able to walk for around 5 days without any pain. I am very thankful that no one was hurt in the process of this, this was a very rare case.
