I just feel like crying, I guess this is just normal...

I was on the highway and there was ice and snow on the left lane, I lost control of the car, the car did two 360 degrees, hit the left and then flipped on the top and went all across the road to hit the right side...

I'm OK, just sore and a little scratch on the ear, it's almost a miracle, you should see my husband's car, it's a total waste...

I'm just glad to be alive and glad nobody was hurt...This could have been awful, a car could have hit me before I got out of it by the broken window...I just can't stop picturing it...:(

Girls, please be extra careful behind the wheel please... ;) Love you all! :)

Sorry if my english is not perfect, I'm still a little bit in shock :(

Kiki, I'm so sorry to hear about your wreck! They're so scary, and I think it's totally normal to still be shaken/in shock. I'm glad to hear you're okay though! *hug*

Glad to hear you're ok! It'll take a few days/weeks for the shock to wear off. :)

OMG, I am so glad that you are OK! You must have been so scared, I don't blame you for crying and being shaky. Car wrecks are always scary. Like I said, I'm so glad you're fine.

So glad to hear that you're okay. Definitely don't hold back from crying. Let it out. It will make you feel better.
I was almost in a 5 car accident a few years ago and was shaken up for days after so I can imagine how traumatic this must have been for you.

So glad you're okay. I was in one like 2 years ago-a little fender bender but it scared me so bad. I didn't drive for months.:(

That's so scary! I'm so glad you're alright and the damage was to the car and not you!

How scary! I am really glad to hear that you're okay. I know how you are feeling, I was in a pretty bad wreck a few years ago and I didn't want to drive for the longest time after that.

Glad to hear you are OK. I would be in shock after something like that, too.

I'm so sorry this happened but I'm glad you are okay. It is very scary though. I would be crying too.

A few weeks ago both my brother and good friend got into two separate accidents. My brother got hit by a speeding police cruiser that ran a red. My brother didn't even see or hear it coming. Luckily only bumps and bruises for him and the police woman. But both cars spun and both were totalled.

And my friend was in a similar situation as you. She was in a snowstorm, the highway curved, but she lost control of the car and went straight. Hit the left side median, bounced off that and slid underneath a big rig truck. :eek: She got dragged for a while too. But miraculously she only had cuts from the windshield and aches and pains from being bumped around in the car. Luckily she had no passengers because they would have been gone. The whole passenger side was crushed. When she saw she was going to crash, she pretty much closed her eyes, covered her face and braced for the next life.

Anyway, let's count our blessings. It is scary how things can happen. But I'm glad you are okay.

OMG glad you are safe!! I was in a bad wreck almost exactly a year ago...I was lucky enough to be ok, but the wreck was my fault & I totaled my 1st car :( It has totally changed my outlook on driving!

My Lord, how incredibly scary and traumatizing! I'm so glad to hear that YOU are ok! A car is just a piece of metal, and it's replaceable. You, on the other hand, are not.

As Mini said, count your blessings, because you are here :).

Thanks girls! :)

I do feel a little better today, just really sore...I had to drive yesterday (not on the highway, I'm not ready yet), it was scary but I guess it will get better with time...
I'm incredibly thankful to be alive and not injured, I know how lucky I am...!

Thanks again fo your kind words! :)

I believe that everything happens for a reason, Kiki. I believe in fate, and I'm glad to hear that you're ok. I can't even imagine how shaken you must be.

Reading this made me feel better, thanks Marisa
I do believe it happened for a reason too, I think I'll be way more careful now and maybe I'll avoid a much worse accident... That's the good thing that can come out of this... :)

I'm so glad you're okay! I've been in three wrecks, so I know how scary they can be, but at least you weren't hurt. :)
