Yesterday, I was in a serious car accident that nearly claimed me my life.

I was driving to pick up my brother from work and it was about 4:30 in the afternoon. Just as it turned to dusk, my eyes were beginning to close. The first two times, I opened my eyes with no problems. The third time was sudden and in just three seconds...
I SMASHED RIGHT INTO A PHONE POLE, AND WAS NEARLY CRUSHED BY IT!

I was literally screaming for my life. Luckilly somebody was there to call 911. There was glass all over my coat and pants from the impact. The whole time i was awake. It took around 30 minutes for the EMS people to get me out of my dad's car, because the power had to be turned off. I had to wear a neck brace (which was really uncomfortable) as well as lying in a stretcher the same amount of time it took to get me out and into the hopital.

My injuries though were minor. A laceration to the head, a sore neck and a bruised knee. It couldv'e been worse as that night couldv'e been my last.

...known from a videotape the two made when they met in March... in Dresdens home, Dresden amputated Gabriels penis and Dresden and Gabriel ate the penis together...Gabriel had insisted that Dresden bite his penis off; this did not work.. Dresden used a knife. When that knife turned out to be too blunt, Dresden used a sharper knife to slice the penis off. Gabriel apparently tried to eat his share of his own penis..but could not because it was too..."chewy". Dresden then sautéed the penis in a pan with salt, pepper, and garlic.

glad to hear that you are alive!
all the best and keep safe!

whiplash is going to be a bitch, mine didn't set in until a month or so after the accident. Hope it won't be a problem, glad you're ok!

Or a pedestrian.

I don't know where I would even begin to cope with the shame from killing another human being with my car just because I was being negligent.

I still am.

Right now im still in New York in my old house.

The reason why i crashed was because i wasn't aware of a medication i have been recently taking. I took the pill at 1pm and 4.5 hours later, it was still having an effect. The result, i became drowsy and then the rest was history.

hope you're ok... and your insurance company doesn't read this thread.
