My son and mother in law got in a off set head on collision with a 18 wheeler this evening. The aftermath looked awful and they are both damn lucky to have walked away. Son has a cut on his hand and a busted lip from the airbag. The bottomless pit feeling in your stomach when something like this happens to one of your kids is indescribable.

Damn, glad it all worked out ok for you. Good night for you to remember what's really important.

No kids, but this is a fear I have when I think about having kids.

shite, I am freaking out because our power went out so the monitor in my son's room is off. That sounds like a miserable experience. Glad they are OK.

I called him when everything settled down and reminded him that this is what can happen when you lose focus for even a second while driving. The sun was in the MIL's eyes and she veered into the other lane.

I'm really glad they're okay. Sometimes I get scared whenever my wife is out with the kids. You never know.

Been through similar situations. They're very sobering because you realize those you love can be gone in an instant.

She's not really that old at all, 63 I believe.
