A 26-year-old man has garnered much respect and admiration for continuing to work as a food delivery rider despite losing an arm in a traffic accident earlier. A Sinar Harian report says that Ahmad Nabil Rosli, from Kerteh, Kemaman, lost his left arm in a serious motorcycle accident in 2017. The accident saw his bike being dragged onto the road and catching fire, while leaving him in a coma. Recounting the horror, his father said that Ahmad’s heart had stopped for about 30 minutes and he was in critical condition before doctors successfully revived him. But the accident may have cost him an arm, but not his spirit. Ahmad used to wear a prosthetic arm, but nerve pain in his shoulder prevented long-term use. Yet, he continues to work efficiently and independently. He continues to deliver an average of thirty 30 orders on a daily basis. He even hit 50 orders a day once, setting a new record for himself. Ahmad also explained that a rider’s income depends on the availability of orders. As such, he takes advantage of busy days and accepts as many orders as possible. He credits his parents, Norsyam Zakaria and Rosli Awang, as well as his siblings and close friends, especially Aslah Azman, for giving him the strength to put the nightmare behind. Ahmad continues to say that the accident gave him a second chance at life, and he now uses his story to motivate others. He regularly posts on his social media account TikTok/ahmadnabil400 to inspire people not to give up in the face of adversity.
