Dear friends,
This morning on my way home from Boy Scout camp I was involved in a major car accident. While traveling north on Interstate 49 I entered momentarily onto the shoulder. However, there was a parked car on the shoulder immediately in front of me. With not much time to react, I swerved over as best I could but still plowed the passenger half of the car into the back of the parked car at interstate speed.
My car spun around horizontally and then flipped in the air end over end and then rolling several times on the side of the road, eventually landing several hundred feet from the road.
Providentially, there were many Boy Scouts following who came to my help. After cutting me out of the car I finally ended up at the hospital. Miraculously my injuries consist only of a broken bone in my right wrist and some very sore and perhaps fractured ribs.
I remember invoking our Blessed Mother with each roll and give her and my guardian angel incredible thanks tonight. God is so good. This is as close as I want to come to death until its really time. In addition to God I owe incredible thanks to my good friend Terry Sexton who immediately came to the hospital and got people praying. I am so blessed today. Always wear your seatbelt and thank God for each day of life.
