    Had A Big Scare Last Night

    I got a text last night from my ex saying one of our daughters had been in a very bad accident and was being halo flighted to a Corpus hospital. She was told to get to the wreck quick. That was all I got. So, I sat here, 8 hours away, in shock and fear for what seemed like eternity. Seems she had left the kids at the house with her fiance and went to Walmart. On leaving, she was tboned by a pickup. She had her window rolled half way down. On impact, her head hit the window, shattered it and cut her from ear to ear, down to the skull. thank God the grandchildren weren't with her, as I was told the car seats in the back seat were destroyed, as that's where he impact was at. Finally, I got a call around midnight from the daughter and all my emotions drained from my body as I was able to hear her voice and know she was okay. Scans and Xrays showed no other damage. Several staples and stitches and she is okay. Lots of prayers were sent last night and were answered.

    Re: Had A Big Scare Last Night (bigfishingstud)

    Thanks everyone. I found out she had dropped the collision insurance on the car I bought her. But, she told me that she had liablitly on it. (only hope she told me the truth on that one!) Scared me on that too, as the car is in my name. Of course, it totaled the car. She doesn't have any medical insurance either, being a single mother of 3 kids and a part time job. Hate to see the bill for the halo flight, scans, xrays and ER. But, at least she's going to be okay. It scared the grandkids to death, as well as all our family.

    Glad to hear everything is ok. As we all know, it could of been worse. Hearing things like this makes you really sit back and appreciate the precious things you have in your life. Again, so happy that things are ok.
