    She's gonna be a hero if she survives this...

    Been to:

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

    She's going to be fortunate.

    She's unlucky to be hit by a car. There was no heroism involved.

    It seems there is a growing trend that a severe enough injury automoatically makes the person either a hero or brave.

    An enemy that wishes to die for their country is the best sort to face - you both have the same aim in mind.

    i don't think its the injury so much as the survival that makes her brave

    And she is a hero for surviving those elderly people who shouldn´t have a driver´s license anymore.

    All above 60 should only be permitted to drive if they undergo a yearly health check.

    She could be said to be lucky to survive. Hardy, even.

    To recover from the injuries she could be described as resiliant or a battler.

    There is a chance that shen she recovers from te psycological damage she will be brave or stoic. Determined or inspirational.

    If she had pushed someone out of the way of the car she would be a heroine - i.e. has knowingly placed herself in danger.

    A guy that got stabbed in the guts trying to prevent a robbery could be described as a hero, although he had no idea he was going to be stabbed.

    It's a pretty important destinction IMO.

    She knowingly lived in a world where elderly people have a driver´s license...

    I agree.

    I hope she survives, well for her sake to be perfectly honest as it doesn't really impact on my life at all, but I don't see the bravery or courage, just a survival instinct
