Our Crummy Weekend

Friday - January 23, 2009 - We had quite an exciting weekend, unfortunately not in a good way. It started out with my Mother being horribly sick and in bed Friday night (she ended up staying there all weekend.) And on Friday night around midnight we got a hysterical call from my little sister, Lindsay. She had gone to get icecream and drive around for a while with her friend, and 3 girls she was babysitting for the weekend, when they were T-boned by a little highschool kid, going 60 mph (on a 25 mph street), where they were spun around, and went up over a curb into someone's yard, hitting a huge pine tree. The front and side airbags were deployed, and thank goodness everyone was wearing their seatbelts, so everyone was fine, except one of the girls got a laceration on her head that required 60 stitches, and the car is completely totalled. The kid was cited for initentive and careless driving. We took Lindsay to the ER on Saturday because she was so stiff and couldn't move, especially her neck, luckily she's fine, she just has a very bad case of whiplash. Then my grandmother (she's 84) was very ill as well, we went over to see her, and found her on the floor. She had passed out and gotten sick. But she's ok as well. So, thank goodness the weekend is over, and hopefully things can just get back to normal.
