Guest guest Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 Hello Everyone, I wanted to say a quick thanks to all that wrote me last with encouragement. I know that it will take some time to adjust to the new meds and see if there is improvement. Yesterday I was in horrible pain and still had to go into work. I was so depressed. I had followed a flatbed- work truck that has the flat front on it about half way to my job, and a log truck entered the highway in front of us. We slowed down and had started gaining speed again, when a little voice in my head said you are fixing to have a bad accident. I took my foot off the gas pedal and about that time saw logs crashing thru the truck in front of me. That guy had driven right into the logs that were overhanging the back of the truck and they logs were completely thru the cab of the truck and were coming out the back. I slammed on my brakes and hit the shoulder at about the same time the log truck slammed on his and flung the work truck off the logs and across the highway into the ditch. I then drove to that side of the road. parked. Called 911 and told him we needed help. I knew from the damage that I saw occur that the chance of this guy being alive were pretty much none. A old man had stopped while I was standing on the side of the highway talking with the 911 operator, he tried to open the door of the truck and turn off the engine that was still running in waist high grass. He told me that I couldn't do anything for the man that he was already gone. So I sat in the pass. seat of my car and gave report after report to the police. Right after the accident I called my work and left a message with the only person there yet that I had witnessed a fatality accident and I was very shook up and I would be late, If I could make it at all. By the time I finished up there and regained my senses enough to drive I was so ill. I drove to my mothers and then would you believe my job called and wanted a exact time I would be in? The girl I left the message with told my boss that I left a voicemail stating I was running late and I would be there sometime. Can you believe that? When I told my boss I had left the message with the girl who just happens to be her bestfriend, she said that I should have called her cellphone, I said I don't have your number- you never gave it to me. you only provided me with the main job number. She said that was my fault and I should have taken it upon myself to learn her number. What a BITCH. Sorry if that offends anyone but what else would you call a person like that. I was still shaking from the horrible event I had only witnessed a few hours before. Had thrown up, and other stuff and then brought myself to work, and then was berated for not notifying her directly. Don't get me wrong I love the work that I do on my job, but this woman is more than I can deal with. As soon as another position opens up that I am qualified for I am outta there. Well that is enough of my bitching for the moment. I find out my MRI results tomorrow and will let you know what the results are as well. Darlene, you and your hubbie are in my prayers. Kim, girl you slow down and take things as they come. Matt, I hope you have gotten your eyes checked by now. , you are so funny. who else am I leaving out? Hmmm, my mind fails me right now. Too everyone else please know that I think of you all daily and hope this day is as pain-free and joyous as possible. Talk to you all again soon. Big Hugs, Allissa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
