Sheila in serious car crash this a.m.

You never know how quick your life can be over.
Today we thank God that we insisted on buying our new car with side air bags. They say, that is what saved her life.
Sheila left for work this morning and was making a left turn through a green light when a car came speeding down the road and hit right into her door sending her car spinning 360 degrees. The side airbag deployed. A policeman just happened to be right there and saw the whole thing. The other driver was speeding and never hit his brakes.
They had to cut my sweetheart out of the car and take her by ambulance to the hospital.
They contacted my parents and I as we are her emergency contacts.
She has a bump on her head and a large bruise on her face and head, her wrist is injured but to swollen to know if it is broken just yet. She could not move her legs this morning but has since been able to move them and is now walking. After spending the whole day at the hospital they have decided to let her come home. She will have to go to her doctor. Her new car is totaled they think. Thank God for insurance. When she is able to go back to work she will get a rental or loaner car.
I am feeling so bad for her. She is always so strong. She could have been gone in an instant. I might have lost her forever...
This has made me think. I could not lose her. Not yet, not ever....

I have been so deep in thought all day.
It could have been over so quick. She almost took my little red celica today.
Then at the last minuet she changed her mind and to the bigger car with airbags.
You can always email me and let me know how you are doing too you know.

Hi Laurie,
I am very sorry to hear about the accident but at the same time I am very happy for you because you didnt lose your loved one. Love each other and take care of each other.

I made her one of her favorite meals and her favorite brownie sundae, then put her back to bed. I worry about her head injury. She still cannot walk very well, but we will have more tests at the doctor. Mostly they did x-rays, so that never shows everything.
Plus she thinks she called me from the car and she thinks she called 911, but she really did not call anyone. She could not remember her age for along time. And when I asked her tonight she had to think long and hard until I told her. Then later she remembered.
I am afraid to leave her sleep for to long at a time. Keep checking her. She has had a little confusion.
I will give an update tomorrow.
Thank you all, your well wishes were very comforting and put a smile on her face.
I love you all,
Laurie
