That is certainly awesome to now lastly find a blog where the blogger absolutely knows what he is talking about.

robyn, you poor thing!! since my main mode of tranportation has been my feet (we don’t have a car yet) i’ve been scared s***less of motorists who have no regard to pedestrians (or to cyclists either). i’ve had a few brushes with death myself (ok, that’s a bit dramatic). props to you though for riding your bike to work. maybe not for awhile again, but much props to you anyway, and please get better soon!

So glad to hear you’re doing better and surgery isn’t needed! That’s awesome. Just take it easy. I hope you got my gnome text yesterday. I couldn’t resist sharing. ;)
Yeah, the emotions always run high after stuff like that happens. The second time I was hit was a very minor accident and I actually rode to school anyway afterwards. But I was still shook up and I remember trying my best to hold back tears during our spelling test and failing even though I wasn’t actually hurt.
Hope you have a good and restful weekend! Still praying for you!

So scary! I totally understand that shock thing. It was total deja vu! When I lived in Texas I was in an accident that could have been really bad. I was driving my roommate’s car and I turned left across a five lane street. I was it on the driver’s side. I remember I had enough sense to pull into a parking lot after the accident but then I couldn’t feel my legs and that totally freaked me out. I was shaking so hard and my hands were tingling and all I could think was, “I can’t breath, I’ll never be able to dance again, I have no idea how to contact anyone.” (I had only been living there 2 weeks. I didn’t even have my home phone number memorized yet.) To this day I don’t know how many people were there. I just remember being loaded into the ambulance. I ended up having the police call my parents in California because I knew they had my home phone number to call my roommates. I came out of it with no broken bones but all my classmates got a kick out of making fun of my neck brace. (I had some bad back and neck strain and some contusions but that was it!)
I’m so glad you’re okay. It’s hard after accidents, especially if you were a pedestrian or biker at the time. You feel invisible. Don’t worry. You’re not.
Blessings!

OMG, I’m soooooo glad that you are alright. Thank God!!!! If you’re going to continue to bike to work, I think I’ll have to buy you a BIG HORN for your handle bar area…one that sounds like a cruise ship horn. Take care girl, you’re a toughie! You’ll bounce back. Love ya, Stacy :)

I got a little shaky just reading that! I really hope this doesn’t stop you from biking (once you are 100% of course).
