What a way to start the NEW YEAR!
Do you ever have one of those days or even weeks I guess that everything goes wrong, well I did and it was Friday! This is a long story so be prepared! To start off I need to give you a little back info. So Josh (my step-bro) got a job with Mike this past summer at Pep Boys and they created this great little friendship, we went boating a couple times, Josh came with us on the 4th of July and watched fireworks, or he would even just stop by our house and chit chat with Mike. It was nice that they had become good friends, it was even nicer when we had family stuff going on then Mike had someone to talk to and stuff. So there is part 1 now for part 2. Josh for the last few years I would say has been having these unexplained seizures he has been to the doctor tons of times and they don't know what is causing them. Well they finally found some medicine that worked if he took he medicine daily he wouldn't have seizures but if he missed a day without fail he would have a seizure. He had clearance by doctors to drive and he hadn't had a seizure in a long time. Ok part 3 this is the worst day ever part! So Mike is in Colorado for a month seeing how he likes working at Pep Boys out there so while he figures it out I'm staying at my moms and we are renting our house out. So we still had stuff left in our garage and Mike told Josh he could use his truck while he is CO and while Josh is here for Christmas break if he helped finish cleaning out our garage. So what happens that makes this all bad, Josh gets in a accident! He was pulling out of Burger King the one down by University Mall and starts to have a seizure so a semi truck hits him spins the truck all the way around and then a Yukon going 45 mph hits the driver side of the truck straight on which then causes another little toyota truck to be involed somehow. So here we have this 4 car accident in the middle of state street. The semi truck driver said after he hit Josh he saw that Josh was having a seizure. Josh and everyone else was fine he had to go to the ER and the ER doc told him that when he hit his head that caused the seizure?? So I guess we will never really know if he had a seizure before he got hit or after when his head broke out the driver side window. I think he had the seizure before but you all can come up with your own conclusions about that part. So what happend to the cars you ask, well Mike's truck TOTALED! The Yukon TOTALED! Ya it was pretty bad luckly I guess we only had his truck for a year so it's fully insuraned and we have GAP insurance! We still have to have the insurance adjuster come out at look at the truck, but the guy who towed the truck to the collision repair place gave us an estimate on the damage are you ready for this $15,000 ahhhh ya he said its not fixable . So that was my day yesterday what a nightmare, at least Josh and everyone involed is OK! I did take some pics I will try to post them soon! Then you can see all the damage I guess another good thing was that since Josh was having a seizure he doesn't remember the wreck at all which is good once you see the damage to the driver side you would'nt want to remember what happened either! So that's how we started our new year all I can say is I hope it can only get better from here on out!
