My husband had a bad day yesterday....

....so did my car...




Raymond was traveling north from Collins, MS. Road crews were sweeping the road creating a dust storm. Raymond didn't even see the truck in front of him until after Raymond hit his bumper. The car behind Raymond was obviously having the same problem since that lady hit Raymond's bumper. Our friend Kevin took Candace and I to Collins to pick Raymond up and take him to the ER at Baptist Hospital. Even though Raymond's arm hurt like crazy, the ER personnel said it wasn't broken. He's very banged up and sore, but thank God he will survive. We would appreciate your prayers for a speedy recovery and wisdom in obtaining another vehicle for me. Until then I guess I'm stranded. (Unless someone's insurance will provide me a rental.)

It may be hard to tell who’s at fault here; but if you consulted a licensed lawyer, there would have been a chance for your husband to ask for legal claims from whoever is responsible for the accident. He’s lucky though, he didn’t get injured.

Aw. The photos show that it wasn’t a minor accident. You see, the air bags were inflated, so the impact must’ve been that tough. Well, it’s hard to blame the truck driver because dust storms really make it hard for you to see the road clearly. At times like this, you should just drive safely and responsibly.
