Not everything ends badly, but it's hard not to play the 'what if' game

Mom was in a car accident tonight, on the way home from her friend's house.

She's okay, just really freaked out. Some lady, who was lost, ran a stop sign and smashed into the rear of my mom's car, spinning her around in a 180.

Mom thought she was going to die. She was a mess when she called us, but she's better now. I have made her sit down with tea and a heating patch on her neck (she has had serious neck problems in the past and I bet she got some kind of neck muscle stress during the whole thing), but.

I still worry.

But it could have been really bad. So.

*breathes*

I just wanted to share.

It's a bugger that anything had to happen to her, but yes, excellent that it wasn't all the things you're imagining (and very understandable that you do think of the alternate scenarios...)

But it sounds like you're taking great care of her, which I'm sure she's thankful for too.

I can only hope. Just--wow talk about surprising phonecall. Man.

Thanks.
