momofkhm Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 "Mom someone just hit me." Thank God she is fine. The car is probably totaled but the accident wasn't her fault. She left the dentist office to pick up brother in one car while I stayed with sister. It happened right outside the office. The dentist' office was wonderful - "I need a big favor, can I leave all my stuff? DD1 just got hit." Yes! And we'll take care of dd2! Call dh to come and deal with kids. DD was in the left turn lane, waiting at a red light. It was pouring! Someone turned onto the road she was on, hit water, overcorrected and hit about 3 cars, dd being one of them. DD was looking down and so didn't see it coming but she felt her car get hit twice. (Techmom- this was out in front of Western Wake.) DH stayed with her and I got the other 2 kids. We're home. Even though I moved the car out of road, it's not drivable - something about the rear tire. DH isn't home yet and I already have an email from our insurance company! She's fine. I'm just going to keep saying it - she's fine. She's fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anne in CA Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 You are right, it is my worst nightmare. So glad she is fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MamaT Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 I'm so glad she is okay. Scary, isn't it? Both my oldest two totaled their first cars in accidents, but they were also fine. So far my third is accident free (knock on wood). :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starr Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Thank God she's fine. Poor thing, to be sitting in your own lane and wham. Have a nice dinner together and repeat your just fine mantra. :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel Yell Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 :grouphug: Have her get checked out anyway- just in case something shows up later, so it will be on the other person's insurance. Diamond is learning to drive, and I tell her every time to watch out for other people. So scary! :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melmichigan Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Have her get checked out anyway- just in case something shows up later, so it will be on the other person's insurance. :iagree:It might seem like a pain but it can't hurt. I'm glad she's ok. :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1bassoon Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 :grouphug: My dd19 was in her first accident almost a year ago this week. Totalled the car. It was horrible. I kept repeating - she's fine. She's fine. She's fine. When she calls at unexpected times, I still panic. :grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonshineLearner Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 If she couldn't avoid it, it's better that she wasn't looking, most likely. You don't tense that way... Kinda like why drunk drivers sometimes don't get hurt as bad as others... Yes... it's all just down to "She's ok!!!!" :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrincessMommy Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 We've been through this 3x with 3 different new drivers. Unfortunately 2 of the times it was my kids' fault. :glare: But, like you said "she's fine." That's what really matters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MamaAkins Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 So glad she's okay. I know the intersection you're speaking of and it's a bad one---too many different lanes going in different directions! Praying that she doesn't have any residual effects like whiplash and that you can get everything worked out with the insurance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sugarfoot Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Thank goodness she's okay. My oldest just got his driver's license today. He hasn't even driven by himself yet, but I can already feel the worry... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TechWife Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Oh, Cheryl - so glad she is okay. What a scary thing to have happen. Is she still shaken up? Let me know if I can help w/rides or anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
