Warning I need to vent warning

So I got hubby off to work yesterday took my meds watched a little tv then I went back to sleep around 6am. I woke up at 7:30 and was trying to force myself to get up and take a shower because between 8-12 the washer repair man was to come. At 7:49 am I heard a Big Bang out side. I went to the front door and didn't see anything. So I opened the fridge t door and the smell of gas hit me in the face. So I walked down the walk way and saw my neighbor across the street. I asked if he smelled the gas and he said your truck has been hit. I go around the front of my truck and someone had hit my truck in the gas tank area and left. Gas was pouring out. I ran in got the phone called 911 told them brushed my teeth real fast but on a bathrobe got Sammy out of her kennel and ran back out.

All of my neighbors were out I called ken and said he needed to come home. He never leaves work but he said he was on his way. A neighbor down the street said he has security cameras and he was going to look at them. He found the guy who hit my poor defenseless truck. If his tire rod had not broken I don't think we would have caught him. He finely came down and said he hit my truck.

My neighbor kept urging me to get shoes on it was high 30's low 40's and I was shaking. The police came 2 cars and the fire truck. Then another firetuck came. Right in front of hour house is a storm drain and I had a full tank of gas. Then the city came. Lucky hubby got home just in time.

We thought everything was calming down only for the city to come back out and ask why isn't the fire department still here. And they told my husband he had 1 hour to get the truck out it there and they call the police back out. The officer called the towing company directly and finely 2 trucks showed up one for us and one for the guy who hit me. But we had to find a shop to take I to. We found one and they took it.

Now the hazmat team was out side to clean up the front of the house. In between we called the insurance company and our agent who was useless. I took a shower and got dressed and hubby looked at our cameras. He hit my car hard and didn't even slow down.

This happened at 7:49 am my the time all was said and done it was after 1 pm and I needed a rental car but I have a ramp on my truck for my power chair. Hubby had to take it off and no one would help him.

It looks like my truck will be totaled

Then hubby's brother calls and says he's on his way over and he has their sister with him. He just found out he has nasal cancer and will have to go through chemo and radiation.

Then hubby's sister tells us that her husband needs a new kidney and is refusing dialysis

I am mentally, physically and emotionally drained. Oh and my grandmother turns 90 today and tomorrow we are throwing her a surprise party which most of it is falling on me.

The upside the washer got fixed. It was also the repair guy when he was watching the video of my truck being hit said I bet he was on his phone.

Can anyone guess what my blood pressure is now
