Spears previouslyopened up to PEOPLEabout Maddie’s near-fatal accident while promoting her memoir,Things I Should Have Said, earlier this year.
In her book, Spears offers a chilling account of the harrowing ordeal and Maddie’s unbelievable recovery. It had previously taken Spears nearly five years to open up about the distressing day and its aftermath.
“I really just was introspective,” Spears told PEOPLE. “I was writing music, writing my story, figuring out how I wanted to tell that story specifically, and was like, ‘Well, it needs context: I got to tellthis, too, I got to tellthis, too.’ Over the years, it turned into my whole life story.”
“When you have the worst thing you can think of in your life happen to you, it makes you look at everything else differently. You have a lot more gratitude,” she added. “That was a miracle. That should be heard. There’s a lot of dark things in this world today, and I think that putting something out there like that, that is so wonderful, is something that should be shared, especially when it made so many changes in a lot of lives for the better.”
