Including an Injury in Personal Statement

[LemonTurtle97]

I want to weave this into my personal statement, but I don't want the accident to consume the essay.

I'm just nervous that readers would only focus on the accident itself

Should I include the accident or just focus on other things that have influenced my life and interest in medicine for the PS?

I'm just nervous that readers would only focus on the accident itself and it might make them think my dexterity is hindered now, even though it isn't.

Nobody is going to care about this.
