A Confession in Recovery – “Please Wait. You’re Not Alone.”

I was injured.
I didn’t even know how it happened—
I simply found myself living in the hospital.

At Samsung Medical Center, one of the most well-known hospitals in Korea,
I nearly died… and I came back to life.

To the doctors,
and to the many medical professionals who cared for me,
I am deeply grateful.

Even now, I continue to receive treatment at Samsung Hospital.
Yes, it costs a lot of money.
And yes, it’s hard.
But I hold on with just one thought:

“I want to live like a human being again.”

Before, I was someone who worked to earn money—
for myself, and for my family.

But now,
my thoughts have changed.

Even now, my body doesn’t work the way it used to.
My speech is broken,
and writing is very difficult.

And yet—
I want to tell my story to others.

There were days I wanted to die.
People told me, “You have to live.”
They told me to think of my parents, my wife, my children.

But I couldn’t.
I was too broken.
Too sad.
I couldn’t think of anyone. Not even my mom, or dad, or wife, or kids.

Because just existing—was unbearable.

Time passed.
A year went by.
And finally, something changed inside me.

I began to think of my mother.
My father.
My wife.
My children.
And now, I’ve made a decision:

I will not die.
I want to live again.

I believe there are others like me.
That’s why I’m writing this—
even though it’s hard.
Even though my hands are slow,
and my thoughts stumble on the page.

It’s still difficult.
Writing hurts.
Speaking is strange.
But I will not stop.

To anyone who reads this,
who might be feeling like me—
please,
don’t give up.

Wait.
Hold on.
I will keep thinking,
and step by step,
I hope I can help you too.
