We live in a town, about half a mile from the banks of the Ahr River. It had been raining buckets that week and there were ___1___ warnings for some of the nearby areas, but not where I was.
As a precaution, I’d ___2___ sandbags outside my garden door and piled electronics and clothing on tables and the couch just in case water managed to see p through.
As I fell asleep, I was ___3___ by the sound of rushing water. When I swung my legs off the bed, I was ___4___ to feel cold water already up to my knees and rising fast. Shivering and in darkness, I grabbed my phone and ___5___ its flashlight. Water was coming from the garden door, and chairs, bookshelves and pieces of my drum set were floating all over my living room. The Ahr must have ___6___ burst its banks and breached the sandbags. And now I had to get out — fast!
With the water now up to my waist, in bare feet I started to paddle to my only ___7___: the door leading to upstairs. Finally I made it to that door and tried to pull it open, but the water’s pressure was high. I managed to make a ___8___ of about 30 centimeters with all my strength and effort, enough for me to squeeze through. Rushing down outside, I ___9___ that if I had woken up just a few minutes later, I would have drowned.
The experience made me grateful and determined to live each day to its fullest. I will remember what my mother told me: “Don’t remember the day when you ____10____ everything. Remember the day you survived.”
