I almost died tonight


Yes,I was in a horrible car accident today at about 605pm.It was the scariest thing that has ever ever happened to me. I literally saw my life flash right before my eyes.


Ok I was getting onto the fwy and there was a red light as I got on I saw a puddle of water from a nearby sprinkler I went over the water and lost control. I spun around and around and I remember screaming no not now. I want to live. I then turned to my let and saw a big rig I prayed that I would not hit it so instead my car fliped over and I landed in a ditch.


Miraculously thanks to God I am alive. The seat belt saved my life and so did my 1987 jeep. I was crying non stop,but i had no major injuries. I am still shook up,but happy that I am ok. I was hurt and a bit bruised by my seat belt because i was upside down for about a half hour because they had to use the jaws of life to save me.


I now know God is concrete because as I lied there motionless a man out of nowhere comes to my rescue and said he was praying for me that he knew it was going to happen. I truly believe he was my guardian angel. I never saw him again. I was airlifted to a nearby hospital and I asked about him,but people said there was only 1 person at the scene and it was not him. Miracles do exist.

Am so glad you are OK!  I too believe that angels are everywhere.  I know I have a tattered, dirty, bedraggled angel following me around.


You are amazing.


Love in Recovery,
