Special Christmas
This year will certainly be a very special Christmas for me. Three nights ago I got that phone call that every parent dreads. My daughter had been in a horrible car accident. She rolled the car she was driving (they say) 9 times and was ejected out the passenter window. Initial reports were that it was a driver fatality accident. Her male friend and passenger was not ejected but managed to crawl out of the car, find her in the road and pull her to safety.
The great news is that she not only survided but after only three days was released from the hospital with minor injuries. Nothing even broken! She had to have a minor surgery to repair a torn tear duct in her eye and 6 staples to close a wound on her thigh. Besides that, just scrapes and bruises so far. There will be further test to check for torn tendons in her shoulder and leg if she continues to be in pain. Even better is the fact that she will be coming to Colorado to visit me for Christmas!
Remember to hug the ones you love because you never know when it can all be taken away! Merry Christmas to all!
