I’M BOLD! My younger sister was in a horrible car accident halfway across the country during a road trip. The car flipped over and rolled three times, landing on its side.
My brother, dad and I jumped on the very next flight to go see her. We got from Maryland to St. Louis in mere hours after getting the call, we sat with her in the hospital, and when she was discharged, we took her home.
She was miraculously unharmed, but I can’t say as much for the car.
