Well to sum up our drive so far I am shocked we are still alive. It’s raining and practically all the interstates have so much construction there’s no traffic lines to see, one area threw half my car off the road as the pavement just vanished in half the lane. I still don’t know how I got back on the road. Must have been a truly “ Jesus take the wheel” moment

I have never ever been so scared driving in my life !

We finally got on 75 in Atlanta and same thing literally impossible to see traffic lines.. Huge holes in the road that almost wrecked use I can’t tell you how many times.

Then a horrible accident had the entire southbound lanes closed , took over an hour to have to drive on the shoulder of the road only half on pavement , we were I. The dirt , had no idea how to get back to 75 so we decided to follow the truckers figured they would know how to get back, Thankfully they did ,

I drove to the next exit got off , pulled into a gas station. Put it in park literally jumped out of the car almost ran to the bathroom and just lost it.

It was 8 horrifying hours !!!

Our normal at most 13 hour trip is looking like a 16 to maybe 18

It’s finally gotten light out ! The rain has it pretty dark tho , but at least can see the roads easier.

I just hope we make it in one piece ... while typing this we have passed 4 accidents.. in one a semi truck , the whole cab broke loose and flip right onto its roof, there was a huge fire as the tires were melted. I pray the driver survived

We have made this trip probably 50 times and never have we gone through such hell !

Steve and I aren’t sure if I should drive any of the rest of the way. Maybe I’ll settle down , but omg the cars just flying by us. People I swear have a death wish.

Hugs to all in case I die, seriously ugh

Great! It's a good sign he has been in touch!
Of course you're very concerned, rightfully so!

Situations like this make me thankful for technology so people can stay in touch.
Might you see him today?

It's such a sad, grief-filled and a very scary challenge for people when those around them take their lives. It has to be incredibly painful and likely quite demoralizing and confusing?

It has to be scary for you, too, IZ.

Thinking of you and your son.
Many thoughts and prayers.

May you both feel supported and surrounded by Love!

Still struggling with smoking. I’ve got to come up with a battle plan. Basically I think I’m going to have to accept that I’m going to feel ****** for awhile. I usually push so hard against feeling bad. But accepting it might help me work through it.
