Xeragel® (XSO-797) - $16.30A teenage boy who survived a car crash that killed two of his friends has been left with a large scar down his back, reaching from shoulder to waist, the Newcastle Herald reports.
Dylan Bush, 16, said that he and his friends had been drinking and partying when they all decided to go for a drive. They approached a left-hand curve at more than 60 miles an hour and were thrown off the road. Bush and the other backseat passengers were ejected from the car, landing in a nearby front yard.
"I got up and I fell back down. I couldn't breathe, I couldn't see," he told the news provider. "I ran towards the car to see if my mates were in there."
He managed to perform CPR on one of the girls and ran to get help, despite having sustained two broken vertebrae, a broken arm and other injuries. Both of his friends died in what Bush calls a "mistake I'll have to live with forever," quoted by the source.
During the scar healing process, he urged other teenagers not to make the same mistake.
Mothers Against Drunk Driving estimates that 10,839 people die in drunk driving crashes each year, an average of one every 50 minutes.
