Healing after a skiing accident

What happened? Where am I? What’s going on?
Not the thoughts I expected to be thinking during a skiing vacation in Wyoming with my friend.
I love skiing and was so excited to get out on the slopes. But the first afternoon, as we were going down an icy, steep run, I got into a pretty bad accident. I hit my head and was unconscious for a bit. When I woke up, there was an intense pain in my wrist and leg, and I felt very afraid and confused. The ski patrol was there, and they were asking me a bunch of questions that I was struggling to answer. Everything seemed very chaotic.
