Dw went in to work early today to share with the interns. As he near the church he hit black ice and slid into oncoming traffic head on. The car in the oncoming traffic he was going to hit was a white big van like ours.
He was crying as he told me…All he could imagine was a van full of kids like ours and so he turned the car away…and went over an embankment , at some point the truck went up on its side ….people seeing it happen said they couldn’t believe the truck didn’t flip as it went up on it’s side…sounds like it went up on it’s side more than once…he hit a rock mountain and then it bounced and hit it again…there were multiple impacts….
The truck is destroyed from the sounds of things. Dw was having chest pain and unable to remember simple things like my cell so he is at ER now. For some reason I cant get typing from my phone to work and delete stuff so bear with it….he cannot remember much…and feels so yukky….we are thankful for God’s protection as he could have been killed.
ot so coherent either….so they are checking him over…any prayers would be appreciated….
Praying Linny. So thankful for His protection and provision.
The word verification is "FORUS". If God is FOR US, who can be against us?
Praying that everything is okay and that he has a quick recovery.
Prayers for DW and all of you at home as the family waits to hear how dad's doing.

Of course your dear man was thinking of others and took the worst for himself. Such a lovely soul.
I do so hope he heals quickly and fully. I also hope the truck can be replaced without too much financial burden.
Dear oh dear your family sure has more than it's fair share of trials, thank God for all the good stuff such as your beautiful children and your love for each other.
Your husband is in my thoughts.
