Hello everyone,
I just wrote a journal Mon about this time. Here I am back Tues 4:00 AM.
Well yea things can happen so fast. We all know that.
I was stopping at a red light today, the people in front of me stopped pretty fast, and so I had to as well. I was not speedingg or doing anything goofy. The you man behind me slammed into the back of my car. The impact knocked me into the car ahead of me. The air bag went off, and I was just dazed and confused, it happened so fast, then there is another Boob and another Boom. Like dominos. My glasses flew off and the air bag releases powder into the car. The young man that hit me was only 21. He was so scared (me too) he was trying to get to me , but the drivers door was either bloocked or would not open. (I didn't and still haven't seen the car.)
We wew directly in front of the fire station, so the fire/rescue were there in a minute. They got me out, and ask me where I hurt. That would be just about everywhere. My blood pressure went way up, but it was just because I was scared, and hypervenelting. I am real claustrophibic, and they put the neck thing and strapped me down.
No one else was hurt either.
James met me at the ER. They checked, and examined and xrayed. Nothing is broken and no cuts. Lots of brusiaes, and my lower back is swollen and has bad spasms.
My back problems have always been higher and in my neck. I hope this is not permenant. I do not need more pain.
I believe I was in a miricle. I think all our angels surrounded and protected me. I am able to walk, and talk and I am going to be very bruised and hurt, but I am all right. I walked from the ER to the car. If I keep moving I will get better sooner. I will get stiffer if I just lay around.
I am walking around in the house. I sat up and ate and watched tv. I lay down and now I had to go potty and get a drink. Everyone Give a prayer of thanks.
Now I am still having computer problems, and expect a new computer after Oct. 22. I also hurt too bad to sit in this chair on this old desk top. It is ancient and slow, and half works.
I will pray and think of you all. Please do the same for me and James, and my grandkids. They get all afraid because they have lost so many loved ones. I love you all,Peg

Oh Peggy! You're going to be pretty stiff for a while, but praise the Lord, no serious injuries. I guess we're all pretty fragile when it comes to the well being of our loved ones after our loses. I can understand the fear of losing anyone else. All my prayers for a speedy recovery. Love, Dianne

Oh sweetheart, you must have been scared to death. I was hit from behind years ago and the noise alone was horrible. I'm so glad that you are ok, and home resting. Please take good care of yourself, and keep us posted on how you are feeling.
