Talk about STRESSFUL!

Post by Mars »

Bryce (my four year old grandson) was in a car accident with his father (who is a part-time dad when it is a convenience) today!

He is ok except for a bruise across his belly where the seatbelt got him! Thank God he was buckled in!!!!!!!

It was his dad's fault - ran a red light and totaled his truck! I am soooooooooo thankful that the little guy is ok! But boy did my gut do some major flipflops!

Oh Mars Bar,

What a relief that your young man is OK. And what a shock it must have been when you learned about it. Are you feeling any better today?

Love,

Polly :hug:

Hi Polly Wolly!

Yes and no. The pain comes and goes and I am trying to stay away from the ibuprofin. I have taken it every day now for about 3 days. No problems yet but I am keeping everything crossed that nothing changes.

The doctor said this can last for 2 weeks! Ugh! I am getting it more frequently - kind of worried! I'm also using a moist heating pad. Don't know if it is helping or not.

I was too busy having a wonderful day to let it get me down (too much!)

OMG, what a lucky little boy! Sorry, but that dad of his should have his butt kicked! Running a red light is not an accident. Your always extra careful when you have such precious cargo in the car. :duh: Grrrrrr. Thank goodness your little guy is okay. I can imagine your heart fell to the pit of your stomach. Bless your heart!

Hugs
