So You Got F*cked Up

0 - Default Title
Description
On April 4, 2022 Pete Harris rode his motorcycle to work for the first time. He didn't come home. This is his story of recovery. In his own words, he 'got fucked up.' Big time. He was hit and crushed by a car that failed to give way. More horrifying was that the driver drove over him, mistaking him for a median strip. Doctors at the scene gave him less than 3% chance of survival. Pete woke up five days later in Intensive Care in the John Hunter Hospital in Newcastle, some 300 kilometers away. He'd had two lifesaving surgeries on internal organs, a helicopter transfer to Newcastle in bad weather, surgery on a shattered pelvis, his spleen removed and shoulder surgery still to come. Pete doesn't think for a moment that his story is worse than others. Rather, he shares what he has learned in his progression from active PE teacher, father, and husband to a 'fucked-up shell of a human' and the actions and experiences that have led him out of the 'shitstorm'. It is more than a story. It is a plainly written supportive compilation of learnings aimed at others suffering something similar. Pete writes without jargon or gloss. There's swearing, stories, examples and, most importantly, descriptions of how his support network and he continue to work together. It's the book Pete wished he had when he woke that first day.
