Therapy Bits

I slept sorta. I kept waking up and jumping and just being very scared. I kept replaying things in my head. The bag of the two cars colliding kept replaying in my head. It was terrible. I’d say I only slept around 3 hours in total. I’m still at mom and dads. Mom and me have been on the phone all morning. All of our relatives are calling, offering help. My sister rang the insurance people. They are giving her a car for a few days as she has no means of getting the kids to school. She left the kids stay home from school for a few days though. Lauren is feeling nauseous and has a sore neck. My sis rang a solicitor. We’re going to visit her tomorrow morning, all of us. She said we should get compensation for what happened to us. So we’re going to talk to her about things and about what happened. The solicitor said we need to go back to our g.p again. So we made an apt to go on Wednesday. My head still is really hurting today. And my neck. Mom has a sore back and all the area by her lower back is completely black. She also has bruising on her legs. We’ve all been taking antiinflamitories to help us and to help the swelling go down. My sister went on the radio this morning. Good thing she did too as a load of witnesses rang in after hearing her story. And you’ll never guess what happened. The guy who crashed into us he’s still driving around the roads. A few people saw him driving around. So he’s definitely not in his right mind. One guy got him on his dash cam. So my sister rang back the police and told them. And they said they’d look into it and check everything out. Imagine it though, he’s dangerous. Driving around and dangerous. Imagine if he crashes in to someone else? Hurts them? It doesn’t bear thinking about. I think we have a long road ahead of us. To get both compensation for what happened and also for my sister to get payed out by her insurance for a new car and the damage to her old one. We’re ready to fight though. Ready to take on whatever we have to in order to get justice.

Hi guys. Today I was in a serious car crash. My mom, sister, and my sisters two kids were also in the car with me when it happened. Basically what happened is we were going to the grocery store to get my groceries, and we were almost there. We were coming down a hill and when we got to the bottom of the hill we turned right. Another car was coming from behind. He rear ended us. Not once but twice. He hit us and then like 3 seconds later he hit us again. We were panicking by this stage. We were all screaming and trying to pull in. My sisters car is a right off. The whole back of it caved in. We think the other driver was drunk, not only did he hit us twice but then he drove off. He just drove away. We are all ok, but we had to all be checked out. We all had to go to the hospital. My sister, mom and me all have pain in our heads and necks. The doctor said our injuries are muscular. He gave us pain relief and antiinflamitories for a few days. The kids are both ok, but Lauren also had neck pain and whiplash. But she’s ok other than that. We were very very lucky. If he’d hit us when we were coming from the hill we’d have all been killed. Or at least me and Lauren would have as we were on the passenger side of the car. Someone was looking out for us. They had to be. I’m still in a lot of pain and I’m also still in shock. I cant believe the guy drove off. I mean, who does that? How can he live with himself after driving off? The police came and took statements from us. And they said they will try to find him. His registration plate fell off his car, that’s how hard the impact of the bangs were. So we had half of his registration plate. They said they hope to be able to trace him. A girl who works on one of our local radio stations also saw us and she came and talked to us. She snap chatted a pic of the car and the road which had all debris in it and she asked anyone to make contact with the radio station if they know anything. Some passers by were really good to us. They made us tea and they stayed with us until the police came. Thank god we’re all ok. When he hit us the first time, and then a few seconds later he smashed into us again, god I thought we were goners. I really thought we’d be killed. It’s a miracle we’re all ok and alive.
