My daughter had a bad accident Sat. night. Someone was watching over her. Took 25 minutes to cut her out of it. Luckily she is just banged up badly and nothing real serious and should be back on her feet within a week.

Whoa. Close call. Glad she is okay. When will YOU recover? ;)
I recall my son's first and only stitches. I was brave during the sewing calm cool and all and he was hysterical. Within minutes afterwards he was running around and playing and laughing and THEN I was a shaky mess. :rolleyes:

I'm happy for you - happy to hear she's alright after what looks like a pretty bad accident.
That picture is another reminder that the safety ratings of vehicles do matter. And when everyone pays more attention to them and buys the safest vehicles (cars or trucks) then the automakers pay even more attention to making their vehicles safer.
The SUV-haters need to understand that a lot of people buy them because other people drive them and they want to feel safe too. :cool:

Thank God!
How scary for your family. I am glad she is ok....
You think each year your children grow, that you will worry less.....you really just trade worries.
Ok, she can walk now, will she fall down....
Ok, she can drive now, will she crash.....
It is hard to have your heart walking around outside of your body.

Glad she's alright, that's always scary when you get the call your
kids been in an accident.
I let my daughter drive my perfectly cheery, freshly painted,
completely restored 81 Chevy Camaro. Well, she went around
a wet turn to fast and slid the car across the center divide, head
on into a tree. Luckily she was unharmed. So much for that car.:rolleyes:

Thanks for all of your well wishes. Muchly appreciated!
It was a 2000 Dodge Dakota. Really for getting t-boned at 45mph it seemed to provide protection...although never enough.
I was in Havasu when I got the call from my wife from the hospital. Came home Sun am early (no sense having another accident) since she wasn't in immediate danger. She is now 21 and it really makes you realize that all of the disagreements and problems as they grow up, your kids are really special! :)
Oh, she now wants a bigger truck!:cool:

I had one after my son rolled his truck--he called to let me know he was alright and cleared the canal he just jumped no problem. punk kids think they are invincable sometimes.
