It seemed like a great idea....then "Oh SHIT!"

I really am feeling better since surgery and wanted to get out of the house a bit. We went to Napoli's Italian for lunch with my Dad, Bev, Megan, Troy and I. Lunch was great and we even walked around a few shops in Old Town. We decided we were all tired and would head home for a nap!


We were driving home and all of a sudden Troy shouts, "Oh shit!". The next thing we knew we were crash test dummies. The airbags deployed and there was smoke everywhere.

We got out of the truck and saw that a car had pulled in front of Troy and he t-boned the vehicle. The young driver was really shook up but everyone is going to be okay. They took Megan and I to the ER in the ambulance to get checked out while Dad, Bev, and Troy got a cab home to get another vehicle. Dad has a few burns and scratches from the airbags on his legs. Bev's toenail was ripped off and some bumps and scratches. Megan and I checked out okay last night and came home.

This morning, Troy just wasn't himself. He had an appointment with a chiropractor this afternoon. When we went to the chiropractor, he said Troy had all the symptoms of a concussion including dizziness, some memory loss, nausea, vomiting, pupils not responding quite right....he sent us to our primary care doc. Dr. R. took one look at Troy and talked to him a bit and determined he definitely has a concussion. He was also worried about a possible brain bleed and sent Troy for a CT scan. That came back negative, but the doctor would like to see Troy on Thursday.

Our truck is at the collision repair center. Funny how small the world is....the collision repair manager is our next door neighbor! Maybe tomorrow or the next day we will get a rental car. In the meantime, we are all laying low around the house.
So, tomorrow we are going to attempt a new outing! We are hoping the day is less eventful than yesterday's outing!
