    Accident

    My son ScottishRebel was in a car accident today. He was driving the van along with three other boys. Ran off the road going around a curve in the rain. Thank God they are alive. The police and firemen all said that if they were not in a van they would all be dead.

    Zac and two of the boys are just banged up, the van is totaled. The forth boy had a flap of skin peeled back on his farhead, will need stitches. Zac and his mother are on their way to the hospital to check on that boy and have Zac checked out.

    My thoughts are with you, at least they were not seriously hurt and vehicles, unlike people can be replaced.

    Hopefully, all will be well. One of my favorite songs is Franky Lane's old one, The Hanging Tree. There's a line in there that says, "To really live you must almost die."

    A scare like that for the boys may turn out to be worth the deductable on the van.

    Gotta be scary for you for sure...

    Sure is nerve racking when something like that happens.
    My wife got side swiped this morning by a 18 wheeler but there is little damage to the car and every thing is fine with my wife. Hope the kid in the hospital is ok.

    After my son hit a school bus on his bike he spent a long time getting better. I know what it's like to have a child in an accident. I'm happy that your son was not more hurt.

    Well, when they get back to school they'll find out that chicks dig scars. Good to hear they're alright.
