This accident has already been a wake up call for me . I almost lost my baby brother -- a young man who lives less than 10 miles away , who lived in the same house with me for 15 years -- a young man I barely know . I sat in the hospital next to his bed last week and saw him more in that week than I had in the past year .
And when he first woke up and saw me there , my heart broke when tears spilled down his cheeks .
Emotion: Sadness
