Seeing the light and Thankful

I haven't been on the sight for awhile as things had quieted down for a bit.  Thurs. 10-29-09 I was driving on a step and windy road that isn't very well maintained when a car coming up the hill was over in my lane so naturally I swerved to miss it.  The next thing I know my car is fishtailing and losing control as I must have got into the lose dit and gravel on the edge of the road.  The next thing I remember is having to crawl out of the passenger door and flagging down a motorist coming down the hill.   Everything else is pretty much a blur.  I can only remember bits and pieces of that day.  I always wear my seatbelt as it has become second nature to me.

I was taken to the hospital and kept over night, by the next morning, I was in alot of pain and discovered I had stitches in my head a fractured vertabrae as well as a bone chipped from it cuts and bruises.  By 2pm that day I was finally released and my sister came to pick me up.  On the way home we stopped @ the towing co. that had my car.  I burst into tears first over the car then a light went on and I realized how lucky I was to have survived the crash and litterally walked away.  It made me think about how fast life can change or be taken.  Pretty banged up but almost welcome the pain as it reminds me I'm alive...

It does indeed sound as if you have every reason to be thankful for having come through this car accident. I hope that you continue to feel better each day and am glad that you are (overall) okay.
