english: After my limbs were gone, that loss, for example, became fact, fixed -- necessarily part of my life, and I learned that I could no more reject this fact than reject myself.
non_english: Nakon što su otišli moji udovi - na primer, taj gubitak, postao je fiksirana činjenica - neophodni deo mog života, i naučio sam da ne mogu da odbijam ovu činjenicu koliko ni da odbijam sebe.
