I Got shot with a shotgun / AMA

5 years ago, I was shot by accident with a shotgun from a very small distance in my right leg, I lost a huge chunk of my leg (Fat and muscle) and a lot of arteries were destroyed, they had to take an artery from my other leg and stitch it in the wounded leg to replace a main artery. They took half of the bullets out, but i still have the other half of the bullets inside my leg.

i spent 3 days in the ICU, the doctors said me surviving was close to a miracle.

there was a 50% chance of amputation, but luckily i still have half of my leg, and a small limp that i think people don’t really notice.

AMA!
