My life was pretty boring.
I was going to school to be a nurse.
I had a small family. With a mom and two brothers. I have two best friends, Michael and Elizabeth.
Michael joined the army right out of high school, who would have thought that is what saved our lives.
Elizabeth has been my best friend for years, I don't remember a time that she wasn't in my life; she's also in a wheelchair, and I didn't think that is what would have saved her life when the apocalypse started.
My name is Maria and I never thought I would live very long when the dead began to rise.
