Last week on Wednesday, I was taking the back way home to avoid accidents on the interstate and ended up in an accident myself. A silver SUV turned left from oncoming traffic across my lane on 54. Major intersection. Lots of traffic. One minute my lane was clear, and the next there was a car in front of me.<\/p>\n

Car go crunch and snicker-snack. The hood was crumpled, like it is designed to do. Emergency personnel were on the scene within minutes. I was taken to the Duke Hospital ER and had X-rays and a CT scan to check for fractures in my neck. Luckily, everything was clear. I had a neck sprain and some bumps and bruises. Two of my friends sat with me at the hospital and then brought me home.<\/p>\n

Neck braces are uncomfortable things. The orthopedic doctor cleared me yesterday to not wear the brace any more. (Yay!) So I’m all good. It will take 3-4 weeks for everything to finish healing and calm down but for the most part I’m okay.<\/p>\n

I have a rental car and the guy’s insurance company is covering my medical bills, car rental, and offering a reasonable sum for my car.<\/p>\n

I was very lucky to be able to walk away from this accident.
