Accident
Hi all
as most of you guys know already, I had an accident on the way to Josh's house yesterday, the 29th August 2004. I was so close to Josh's - at the intersection of second street and arthur street (josh lives on the 4th)... yeah.. i was on the way to worship practice and I was late. I was driving straight on arthur street(its a main rd), and then in front of me, i think this mitsubishi turned right from 2nd street onto arthur street. She didnt give way or anything, though there was this huge "GIVE WAY" sign. At the same time as she turned, this big 4 wheel drive car rushed straight ahead. like.. straight ahead... it was going at like 60 km/h, i think it wanted to beat that car. they collided, straight infront of me. I couldnt do anything - i didnt even have time to react.
I think my car spun around and they hit my baby in the back as well. and then my baby came to stop at the stubby pole. I like, couldnt believe what was happening. I saw petrol or some liquid (coolant maybe) pouring out from the 4 wheel drive, and i panicked cos I couldnt get my car door to open. I tried all 4 doors, luckily the last one opened. I ran out looking like a mad woman. It was only then that I realised the 4 wheel drive was overturned, and there was a child in the car. They had to lift the kid and the father out of the windows of the jeep. and the other woman had to be cut out from her car. And she was in full shock, had to be given morphine at the hospital. The ambulances came, and took us away in stretchers. Josh came with me. I dont know what i would have done without josh. He was a rock.. he kept on reassuring me that it wasnt my fault and I would be fine. The ambulance ride was alright, the paramedic guy kept on talking to me.
me? I was fine after awhile. Im a little angry now... how can this happen to me? it always happens to me. Ive been in australia for 2 1/2 yrs, and this will be my 3rd car im getting. But the thing that struck me the most was the love and support and encouragement that I received. I love you guys. thank you so much for your support. I mean, Aaron, sam and Nat rushed to the hospital to see me, though i was in only for 1/2 and hour. And Sam and Ming were there at the crashsite (they had been driving past and saw me) thank you so much for everything. Josh's parents also offered me to stay the night, they are so caring and loving. It also made me realise even more that God has a plan for my life, and I have to trust Him. I know that PJ and Michelle were interceeding for my life that day, because the Holy Spirit prompted them to at that time of the accident. I just have to find out what that plan for my life is, danmnit. I need to KNOW. I know that Im put on this planet for a reason, and a purpose that is bigger what I'll ever be or become.
deb's outta there..
