Today my mom, step-dad, brother, and I got into a bad car accident, someone going the opposite way we were went into diabetic shock and was in our lane so we got into a head on collision. My bother and I are OK, despite some muscle strain (whiplash is the technical term, right?) and my seat belt banged me up a little and I lost my glasses, my step-dad is also alright- he just banged his bad knee and it hurt, my mom is getting x-rays and might have to stay overnight because she was banged up the most and they want to make sure she doesn't have any spine injuries (but other then having to pee and the neck brace being uncomfortable she isn't doing too bad). If we were in a small car and/or not wearing our seat belts it could have been a lot worse, I could have left my kitties and puppy orphaned

actually, if it was just this current level of mild discomfort I'd be OK, but I know it won't remain that way

Yeah, the doc at the hospital said it will hurt for the next few days, and my relatives there said it'd probably hurt really bad tomorrow
EDIT: I'm glad I am alive too, I just realized how much it would have killed my dad if he lost both my brother and I in that crash. |

That must have been so scary. I'm so glad everyone is going to be fine and it sounds like it's all minor injuries. Thank goodness you all had seatbelts on. I would rather deal with pain from a seatbelt than not wake up again!! Please take time to relax and rest right now. Your bodies have all been jossled and shocked. They deserve some tender loving care now ![]() ![]() Take good care hon! ![]() sabby |

aside from the parts where the seat belt where, I'm not really all that sore yet (can't fall asleep though, I did for a few hours but then dad wanted to make sure I was OK and since then I can't fall back asleep) my mind is just going 100 miles per hour, thinking about what I want to do tomorrow (hmmm... maybe I'll catch up on playing Pokemon platinum as I havn't played in awhile
![]() is it any wonder I can't sleep? ![]() |

Glad to hear that everyone is alright. It does sound like it could have been a lot worse, but you will still feel the residual muscle strain.
Don't be shocked if your nerves get to you a little bit for a while to when your in the car. I hope the driver of the other car was okay too. Keep us posted on how you're getting along. ![]()

Wow, Kaika - you can have my milk and cookies to go along with your Pokemon. That was a wild ride, huh? I'll bet you'll be checking those lines from here on out.
![]() My family moved from Washington State to Chicago when I was 2. I always liked to sleep on the "dash" behind the back seat and stare up and out of the window. We had an accident too. Someone cut my dad off in traffic, and he had to slam on the breaks real fast. I flew through the air, bounced off the back of dad's seat, and landed on the floor board in the back. Mom took one look at me down on the floor and said "Eh, she's fine - lets keep going." ![]() My son is a little "shell-shocked" after coming home from war. He was out partying with some of his (girl) friends, and they were on their way home on the highway. My son was in the passenger seat. They spotted a vehicle that had careened into a ditch, and it looked pretty bad. My son screamed "PULL OVER!" He jumped out of the car before she could fully pull over and come to a stop and he raced over to the vehicle. There was no one inside. There was NO ONE INSIDE! ![]() From behind, he hears a couple of guys say, "Dude, it's okay - the police just left....but THANKS. ![]() I was up when he came home. I asked him if he had a good time, and he said "Um yeah, it was pretty wild." ![]() Enjoy your games, ((Kaika)) |

So, I got my new glasses today, which are purple of course.
![]() My old glasses were found but were so mangled up it didn't matter anyways, I probably stepped all over then getting out of the car. It's taking me a little while to get used to them... thankfully my right eye is not getting worse (my bad eye- almost legally blind in it) but my left eye is catching up to it. I was concerned when I couldn't even read the big E on the eye chart ![]() ![]() |
