The wonderfully horribally long weekend, prayers would be appreciated! ( Archived) (34)

So, I have my job and have to be at work by 7 in the morning. I leave at like 6:35 yesterday morning, drive maybe five minutes...and total my car! I was driving down the road and something darted infront of me, I swerved to miss it (I knew there were no other cars on the raod), wound up hydroplaining because it rained the night before, went into the oncoming traffic lane (again, no traffic coming) back into mine, hit a ditch my car flipped a couple times, spun around to face the other direction, hit another car that was parked like 10 yards off the road, crashes into their front and passanger side (luckily no one was in there) rolled back and stopped on the hood...LUCKILY...I was wearing my seatbelt! My windows shatterd and I had to crawl out of the drivers window...but, I'm fine, I have some scratches a couple bruises and am sore, but nothing bad! My car on the other hand...no hope for it!...it's beyond gone, luckily I have insurance, un luckily, it's only gonna give us a few hundred so I still have to figure out a way to get a new (used) car >_< And I had to go the the hospital! That part was worse than the crash! They kept trying to put IV's in me (I have horrible veins so they couldn't get it even though they tried in both arms) and then my hair got taped down to the stretcher board thingy they had so when I tried to sit up It got pulled hard (I yelled and the doctor thought that something had gone wrong and I was screaming in pain about something serrious..oops!)

SOOOO...Pray that I can find a good used car at a REALLY good price and that I feel 100% better and that my insurance will come through fast for me and the other people whos truck I hit!
ANd put in an awesomley HUGE thank you for the super fire truck and ambulance peope that were there like two minutes later!...and that the sheriff didn't give me a ticket!

Well glad to hear your OK Becca, that's all that really matters. They make cars everyday dear, and one of those will be yours..


Pete

WOW...I'm glad to hear that you are ok Becca...What a horrible experience!!!!!!

I did had the same thing happen in July (so I know that traumas of accidents) with the same consequences only someone, hit me head on!!!!!!!!!!!

You may think you are ak....Like I did....But just take it easy!!!!!!

Shock can last awhile....and I will pray for both you and a new car!!!!!

well at least your ok thats the main thing. and talking of i/vs i know the feeling i had one in my groin once and my feet and toes because i gpt crappy veins to.


as long as your ok, dont worry anout the car until your feeling better and the shock cleared a bit

I am just glad you are alive. The car can be replaced.

Roy

I am so sorry. Glad you are okay, a car can be replaced but you can't.

Your alright that is really all that matters.

You know, It's so strange some of the things that happened, I mean, I started to roll and I just closed my eyes and knew that when it stopped I would be able to walk away with no problems, I was completley calm about it, after I got out and everything is when I broke down completley even though at that point I was totally safe, and I still am not positive how I got out, I say I crawled out of the window but I looked at the car afterwards when it was at the storage lot and I have no idea how I would've gotten out of it...but I remeber that I never even tried to open the door which I would've thought (now thinking logically) that it would've been the first thing I would try (not that it matter, the driver's side back door was completely bent over the driver's door)but it's just all the strange little things that happened that bug me, and I know I'm still in shock, but I'm also completley calm about it, like it happened and life will move on...however I won't drive down that road again and if I ever see that stupid orange tabby again it's going to become a new road decoration! dumb cat!

THANK GOD YOU ARE ALRIGHT BECCA. KEEP IN MIND THAT WHILE YOU MAY BE SORE TODAY, TOMORROW MAY BE A LITTLE WORSE. I KNOW WITH MY HORRIBLE CRASH THAT I WAS MORE SORE THE SECOND DAY.
VEINS. I KNOW ABOUT THOSE TOO. THE PROFESSIONALS ALWAYS THINK THEY KNOW BETTER THAN WE ABOUT THOSE. I TOO HAVE HAD TO HAVE THEM PUT IN MY FEET AND MY NECK! THEY CAN'T EVER, EVER GET THEM IN MY ARMS OR HANDS. BUT, I HAVE TO ENDURE THEM TRYING ANYWAY.
HOPE YOU FIND THAT CAR SOON AND FEEL BETTER.
