Well I guess about 3 days ago on Monday the 23rd
I was headed home from work about 3:30 pm and was going down us 61. Passed A car in a passing zone, doing about 85 to 90 mph cuz it’s 65 mph zone ,in order to pass you got to build up a little bit of speed . The car start to vibrate and kinda felt like I was stopping a washing machine when load off balance. So I tapped the break just barely hit then . I mean just barely I just put my foot on it as if resting it there and then car locked down ,it set itself sideways, and rolled twice like a nacar racecar landed on it top tore a tire off of si now it is laying on it top ,me in the car and had get out of the car I have to kick my way out of the car through the back window. After kicking my way out I grab ahold of the car to stand up .My back killing me . I can barely stand up.
Then there is something that pulls up and said ” you want me to call 911″ I looked at him or her remember I an hurt so I didn’t really see them, and said to them no man waving my hand that’s good I just flip them over to change the oil on them all the time and passed out …
Woke up to paramedics trapping me up and put me in the ambulance and a police officer saying I have your pistol , I picked up my phone I got to my numbers, called my girl Jennifer.
she answered the phone all I could say was I’m hurt . Then handed my phone to the paramedic and passed out again I woke up to him tapping on my chest and Jennifer telling him not to give me a drug that I am allergic to I heard the sirens going off and the guy telling me don’t move don’t move ,you’re fine ,I got you you , you have broken your back . Hence I’m laying here now three days later with a broken back and a little bit of a headache stiff everywhere feeling like a dumbest as I know I am a better driver than that.Totaled out car I think it’s pretty interesting that the car roll two or three times two and a half times .Twice and it stopped on the half of the third .Tour the tire off .Really didn’t mess the car up as bad as you think. I mean I would imagine everything bent and is twisted now .
I’m laying in the hospital I call my job at West Rock and when I tell him(Mike Terry).I was in an accident broke my back and won’t be in tomorrow ,Now this is supposed to be a family oriented company and all.His response was,okay sorry , you broke your back. Now you can’t work for us no more because you can’t do anything for us . As the is a physical job. Sorry about your luck have a good day bye. That’s to paraphrase in so many words.That is what i took away from it.because I can go into details might in the next little blog but as of right now I am hurting and like to rest for awhile .
