Nathalie, thank you for recounting that chilling story with such vivid insight into your own feelings and sensations. It's rare to actually be able to imagine so clearly what it's like to be rescued when you're in mortal danger--just simple things like noticing when the rescuers were removing your scuba gear, waiting for oxygen, etc., make it so immediate and real. Very scary. So glad you survived and are on the long road to recovery.
In regards to your quest to encourage safety in relation to boat propellers, are you aware of the DAN Europe safety campaign along the same lines? I'm wondering whether they can use your account of your accident to illustrate and promote their goals and at the same time further your own goal. Here's a link.
DAN Europe - Safety Campaigns
Best of luck to you in your continued recuperation, and I hope you regain the use of your leg and foot very soon. Mad props for your boyfriend's cool head during the whole ordeal as well. He's a keeper (that means don't let him go)!
