Thank y'all.
Bunnylady that is so awful.

I was in a bad wreck in 1984. I fell asleep at the wheel and hit a light pole inpact 80 mph. I woke a week later in Fountian Valle trama center with multiple head fractures, broke breast bone, 3 broke ribs. Teeth broken and split lip. I hurt my right knee and left foot had multiple fractures. I had a concussion that lasted 3 years.
My truck was totaled and the engine was in my lap. They had to cut me out.

Another time I was walking down the street at the corner there was a concrete light pole the city of Stanton was putting up new poles. That one was hanging in the road by 12" as a semi turned the corner it hit the pole and rolled onto my foot pinning me.
I had my 2 year old dd#3 in my arms as I was being drug Dow the street. I tossed her into some bushes to keep her from being drug with me. I was screaming and thank God the truck driver heard me and stopped all the guys from the city came running to lift the pole off my foot. They made me take my shoe off and it swole up like baloon. I had to take the bus with three kids to my mom's for her to take me to the hospital. My foot was crushed big time. It was a long time before I could walk on it again.

When I hear of an accident I cringe! It still does something to me to this day! And that was about 27 years ago.
My nerves are so bad I can't stand it. But I have faith in my Lord that he will heal my daughter.
Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers. Y'all are so awesome!

I hope all is well with your DD. It sounds like a bit of PTSD from the accidents. Does talking about it help? I hope so!

Thanks Ron. I have not talked about the accidents in many years. I really don't think about them until there is an accident. I do have a fear of semi's to this day. I go into panic attacks if they get to close to me even as a passenger in a vehicle.

Wow Penny that's awful. I'm sorry.
Your poor momma.

It was my steering wheel that boke my face all up. Plus I did not have a seat belt so my head hit every window as I bounced around. But the Dr said if I'd of had one on I would not have lived.
