>I think you are at least viewing it from a healthy standpoint. It does not good to get upset over things - just do what you can to get through it or improve in any way you can, but always welcome change.

>Last weekend my 17 year old daughter was one of several folks hurt in a multiple vehicle crash on a rainy day. There were three vehicles involved and my daughter was a passenger (with her seat belt on) in one of them. She and her boyfriend were just sitting at a stop light waiting for it to change when someone tried but failed to make the turn and hit their car in the driver's door which then threw them into another a large Toyota tundra truck in the lane next to them and my daughter and the her boyfriend were pinned in (they were in a small Ford Ranger truck). The driver at fault took a right-hand turn at almost 50mph in the rain. The driver of the Toyota tundra (the vehicle my daughter's vehicle was thrown into) was so upset she started yelling who was at fault and that the other kid (he was in a Hyundai Tiburon) better get a ticket. She had no injuries but never once checked on a single one of the kids to see if they were injured. Every one was young except for her and her passenger. They were in the later 40s (about my age). when I arrived she was still standing there yelling. After I checked on the kids I walked over to her and gave her a good yelling myself and informed her that if and when she is a parent, I hope someone is kind enough to check first on her kids if they are ever in an accident before worrying who is going to be charged. I was fuming when I saw it all (after my initial panic receded). She was yelling and screaming about her poor truck and never checked on any of the kids. My daughter and her boyfriend were sitting in the Ford Ranger on their cell phones (calling 911 and their parents (I am one of them)). Just a couple of minutes earlier the driver at fault had run another truck off the road and that driver had called the cops. The cops were looking for the kid's vehicle when the crash occurred so they were there pretty fast. We just finished the MRI's yesterday and received notice from the neurosurgeon today to verify there was no permanent spinal injury. We also just found out that the driver at fault was a 17 year old boy with no auto insurance. So let me tell you - it can always get worse. Be happy!

Thank you
