Yesterday morning, I got one of the worst calls of my life. My dad called to say that my Mom had been in an accident. She was driving to work and since it had been raining the night before, the interstate was extremely wet. She hit a patch of water and spun the truck out, and from what the witnesses were saying, she rolled the truck 6-7 times before finally stopping on its side. There were two witnesses, a guy and his son-in-law, who stopped to help and pulled her out the back window. They took her by ambulance to the trauma center at one of our local hospitals and she suffered a broken rib and a burn on her arm from the airbag when it deployed. THAT WAS IT! I have to say that we are all so thankful that those two guys were there to pull my Mom out. And, based on the pictures posted below, we are extremely grateful that all she suffered was a broken rib and a burn.
These are pictures of the truck after they towed it to the junk yard. We are still in disbelief! She is in much more pain today and has realized some additional bruising and burns, but hopefully, she will start to feel a little better tomorrow. I can't even begin to describe how happy I am that she is okay!

Oh my gosh, how scary. The truck looks terrible. I am so happy that your mom is okay. It is amazing what little injuries she has given the condition of the truck. Holy Shit. I bet you were freaking out. Hopefully she will relax and heal up really quickly.
