Doran Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 This bit of news came to me from a mutual friend. Just wanted you all to know. Drew [Plaid Dad] and J [his daughter] were rear ended on the highway this morning. Their car may have been totalled, but no one is injured. They're pretty shook up. Anne [Drew's wife] is asking for prayer and positive thoughts. Sending you comfort and peace, Plaid Family, and am glad to know you are all okay.

Mom2legomaniacs Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 How scary! I am glad they are not injured though. They will probably be sore and shaken up for a while though. Prayers for you all, Drew.:grouphug::grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OnTheBrink Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Doran, please express to Drew that he and his dd need to be seen by a doctor within the first 24 hours of the accident. They may not feel injured now, but sometimes injuries aren't felt until later. For the other person's insurance to pay for any medical bills, they'll need to have been examined. Sorry they were in an accident. Being rearended is scary! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vida Winter Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Drew and family, I'm so sorry about the accident. It's a very frightening thing. I am thankful that it was not worse, and I will pray that you are feeling better soon. Even though there may be no outward signs I am sure that you are feeling a lot of pain from the jolt. I will also pray that the insurance company deals with you quickly and fairly. :grouphug: Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gandpsmommy Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 My thoughts are with Drew and his family today. I'm so glad to hear that no one was injured. I'm hoping everything turns out okay. We were in a car accident (not our fault) last fall, and I know that it can be emotionally taxing dealing with the shock and trying to sort out the cost involved with the insurance company.

Harriet Vane Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Yikes--sorry this happened. Any car accident, large or small, is scary, but even more so when your child is in the car with you.

waxwing Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 This is Drew's wife, Anne. Thank you all SO much for all the prayers and good thoughts. He and the kiddo ended up renting a car and going to school today, just to have some normalcy, and they're doing fine, all things considered. We have alerted the insurance people and they're going to make their decision at some unknown time, so I'd appreciate your P&PT for that whole process as well! Luckily we have one friend who's a car expert, one who used to be a state cop, and one who just had her own car totaled, so we have lots of good people to lean on and give advice. Also luckily, we haven't had any expensive maintenance done on the car recently. :) And best of all, my family is fine and not injured. Thanks again - Anne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
