I got a Phone call tonight- One every parent fears! My daughter was in a car accident! Has this happened to u?
Thank God she is okay- She has a broken nose, and a very badly hurt forehead, as she broke the windshield with her forehead. Her friend, got banged up badly, too. The ER thought her friend had a fractured bone in her neck! THANK GOD she did not. She also has a badly sprained ankle. These kids were not drinking, but, neglected to wear their seat belts! The driver was wearing his- This is the nightmare call no parent wants to get! As a youth, a young friend of mine died as a result of a car accident- he died in my arms. July 19th, 1980-a date I will NEVER forget! We were out drinking for the night. My friends & I were waiting for a beer run. My sister, the passenger, fractured her pelvis, and the paint from the car was scraped off of her skull. IT CAN HAPPEN TO YOU! DO NOT DRINK AND DRIVE- AND WEAR YOUR SEAT BELTS! I am PRAISING GOD for the outcome tonight. Has anybody ever had this happen to them? I totally freaked out over this!! THANK YOU GOD! She is here with me, safe at home.
I do NOT know who is deleting each and every person's answers on this very serious topic. My daughter is right in my sight on this horrible night. I am in the Medical Field. If you have an issue with me, just let me know. I welcome all of your stories. This was the point of this question to begin with. Sometimes it helps to share a story, whether it be a bad outcome or not. It helps to let those feelings out. Thanks to all who have answered so far! GOD BLESS YOU ALL! Everybody has a story. Don't have to dog them by thumbs downing them, right? Nuff said!
I am sorry, I meant THUMBS DOWN- It has been a long night, and I cannot sleep, in fact, I am very shaky right now.

I am thankful that your daughter is OK. A friend of mine - her daughter was in a terrible accident last week and well she ended up hitting an UNMARKED POLICE CAR HEAD On with very sad results..i also knew the Officer that was killed, he left a 9 , 7 and 4 yr old ... This poor kid has to live with this result the rest of her life! it was 930 am broad daylight- SHE SIMPLY WAS NOT PAYING ATTENTION. TOOK HER EYES OFF THE ROAD FOR A SECOND..ONLY TO OVER
CORRECT.
The funeral for this Officer - was huge! Saturday... there were police cars 4 rows deep for 1/2 mile from the cemetary and at least 500 motorcycle officers papers said 5th officer in 73 yrs to be killed in the of duty.
I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE SAYING HUN! i too had a few friends die due to drinking and driving- MONTANA ROADS SUCK ANYWAY but to be impaired by alcohol makes it just to damn sad. When I was a senior i HS, my best friend was killed - coming to my bday party that she planned for me. needless to say we could not have a party.
Then last wed, my mom was rearended - SHE IS IN INTENSE PAIN - She was hit so hard she herniated a couple of disks in her neck I WISH PEOPLE WOULD STAY OFF CELL PHONES WHEN DRIVING- OR AT LEAST USE A SPEAKER PHONE,
,
anyway- i hope your daughter feels better soon and you can NOW RELAX and get so me rest!! OK

No when my daughter was 8y my neighbor came over to my house to tell me that my daughter had been hit by a car while on her bike. I had never been so scared in my entire life. She was fine she hit the car the car didn't hit her. But i can tell you she is the most careful kid on a bike now.
Your daughter wasn't hurt she was lucky they all were. We tell our kids don't drink and drive, always wear a seat belt.(you know this to be true just from your own experinces) and they are like "OK mom" then it goes in one ear and out the other. It can't happen to me. Well it can and she knows it now.
Good luck to you!!!!!

I have never gotten that phone call, but I was the Idiot who drove after a night of drinking with my friends in the car. We got into a accident, I went strait through a T intersection and flew into a field. (thank God for airbags.) Both of my friends were hurt and I was OK. When They took me to the hospital and when I went to jail, even though I totaled my car and was trashed, all I could think about were my friends, they would not tell me how they were doing because of the HIP-PA laws, they cant. Now they are sewing my insurance company to pay for the injuries (thank goodness they were only minor) and my insurance company is totally screwing them over. One of the girls who were with me is my roommate and I feel so bad every time she complains that her back is hurting because I know it is my fault. If I could afford it I would give her the money my insurance isn't. It is amazing how karma works. How I was the stupid one who thought I could drive and they have to pay for it. It kills me everyday to think about how much worse it could have been.. You never think it will happen to you.. it is amazing how 2 seconds can change your life forever. I will never understand how people could be repeat offenders of drinking and driving. How people can be so ignorant, I will never understand.
Thank God your daughter is OK. I will say a prayer for her and her friend to have a speedy recovery.

properly, you have listened to her while she reported she did no longer experience soft. She is conscious her own limits. why did you insist shechronic? i'm no longer asserting that's everyone's fault. issues take place. i'm asserting evidently such as you do no longer talk properly. she will have the potential to probable blame you and you will could desire to discover ways to deal with it. yet while she ought to no longer circulate to bingo with u interior the comparable automobile and leave to circulate abode with you interior the comparable automobile she could have declined going experience she reported she did no longer experience soft. that's what to blame drivers do. They use their greater acceptable judgment. You the two have a definite volume of duty. although hers is grater for paying for in the back of the wheel interior the 1st place. properly i'm hoping your daughter wasn't harm and that i'm hoping this would not develop right into a kinfolk undertaking that motives you anymore grief than your coping with now. and that i'm hoping you the two talk greater acceptable interior the destiny. a loss of verbal exchange is what i might call it. you probably did no longer understand the way intense she became into and she or he have been given flustered, as many youthful drivers do. i'm hoping no-one became into harm. good success to you all, and compliment God she "walked away". you could replace a automobile yet no longer a toddler.

Praise the Lord and count your lucky starts. Atleast it was a phone call and not a knock on the door from a police officer or state trooper.

Nope....And i hope it would never will. If I will be in a car accident, the only probable cause is I'm still driving that piece of junk with 250k miles, and a million years old.
