With a blink of an eye - if you ever think this could NEVER happen to you.....think again!!!
On July 20, 2011 I was heading back home to Daytona Beach on I-95 going southbound. The last thing I remember is telling my boyfriend I would see him in less then 30 minutes. The next thing I know I am waking up in the Flagler emergency room with a state trooper stating he was giving me SEVERAL tickets. WTF - Officer could you please first tell me where I am at? Was anyone else hurt? Was I in my truck or Ty's car? Could someone please call my boyfriend? What time is it? What injuries have I substained? Trooper states back to me - you don't know which vehicle you were in? You don't remember slamming in the back of a 18 wheeler? You were in a white car and when I talk to Ty is he going to tell me you stole his car? Yes you were the only one hurt and you owe your boyfriend a car, his is totaled! Just then my boyfriend walked in and the trooper said he would like to have a word with him. I could hear my boyfriend tell the trooper he was wrong and that he needed to investigate this accident further. Come to find out this happen just past the weigh station and all caught on camera......this 18 wheeler came off the ramp with NO lights on and almost took my life. Yes there is a warrant out for his arrest and come to find out that this truck driver is an illegal and he has done this to two other people.
Thank God Ty came and told this trooper he needed to investigate this situation and thank God Ty is a truck driver and knew about those camera's posted. My injuries I had substained are: right shoulder dislocated, my face is scared from the airbag from chin all the way down my neck, right hand hairline fracture, my chest looks like it was used as a punching bag, totally brsuch a driveruring ised and was pushed in by the seat belt. So with a blink of an eye - I almost lost my life that night. What a welcome home to Ty being on the road for over 7 weeks. Please remember this: treat today if it was your last, we are NOT promised tomorrow!!! I am GLAD I am alive and I want to thank ALL my friends who have been so supportive threw out this ordeal - yes I am talking about you keeper & Paige!!!
By the way I have hired an attorney and I am going after the trucking company for hiring an illegal and holding them responsible for hiring such a driver and not to mention I am also going after the state trooper for letting this man GO and NOT doing his job!!!
Please understand I will do my BEST to get back to you all and that I am typing with only one hand. The right arm is pulled to my chest because it was dislocated.

+9I knew about your accident but did not know the details. Go get 'em girl !!! You have been SO blessed. You know you have a guardian angel or two, don't you? What you have endured the last few months should not happen to anyone. You are such a strong person, and such a great friend. I am so happy that I didn't lose you. I hope you heal very quickly and slow down just a bit. We all love you Adi......
Thank you....Have a wonderful July 4th:-}
All my thoughts & prayers are with you sweet lady.....and for a full recovery.
You know MAMMY this jerk STILL is on the loose!!!
You already know I love you! Hugs, Sue
(And please give Zeebus's twin, Sarge, a hug from me too)!! :)
My son was in a car accident May 5th.... this is the car he was in- and he has recovered!
I would LOVE a hug from you....I have missed you all so very much!!!
side note: if they find you had been on the phone you might get into trouble for it. Not that any of that is your fault. They are cracking down on that though.
LOL....everyone knows I wear a blue-tooth and I actually wasn't on it at this hour. I had just hung up from talking to the ex-boyfriend. But he had NO lights at ALL on that dang trailer.
Hi sweetie....been a long time since we talked!
