More about my accident...



Here’s another humorous part of the story…

My first call was to Loren; his workplace was only about 10 minutes from where I had the accident. I immediately got out of my car and was walking about. The first passersby to stop and help happened to be County workers. One of the gentlemen kept trying to get me back in my car and calm me down. I believe he called me “sweetie” because that seemed to be natural to his vocabulary and the situation. When the EMTs arrived they demanded I get back in my car and by that time I was pretty upset. I heard the EMTs tell someone to get in my backseat and stabilize my head. I felt male hands on both sides of my face and I thought I felt them kiss the back of my head! I remember thinking “creepy!” I knew the county worker was trying to help and calm me down, but that was just inappropriate! Through my tears and the commotion I stated “my boyfriend and my boss are on their way, please let them through…”

From my backseat Loren said, “Abby, it’s me.” I had no idea! Thankfully the let him ride in the ambulance with me too.

  1. Hey, Abby! Hope your days are getting much better! ;) I forgot to give you suggestions for the abrasions/lacerations that you have. I have a great family friend who is 81 and cut his face up badly when he had an accident a few years ago. He broke open vitamin E capsules and put them on the wounds (I use to do this also) and he also put honey (local honey is best, not store stuff) all over it and today, you can barely tell he had huge cuts on his face! The honey will also keep infections away. It is amazing!!! Hope this helps!:) Hang in there;it won't be long before you are back in the swing of things! :)
