Today while getting outta school my mom bumped into me trying to give my sister a mum and she informed me that my father had been in a bad wreck and that was all she said before she handed me the mum to give to my sister and she rushed off almost in tears to get to my dads side to make sure he was ohk. After hearing this my world was turned up side down and if felt as if someone had punched me straight in the stomach... I later was able to vist the wreck and my dad was up walking around even though the parametics asked him not to, but it just makes you think what if.... Thoes few moments of not knowing if my father was going to be at home to eat dinner with the family truely makes you apperciate what you have and who you can share it with alot more. My mother aploiguezed that she couldnt have more information for me about his condition the first time but maybe this was a sign for me to pay more attention to my family. The wreck occured here in helotes while he was delivering mail being hes a mail man and when he took a left turn with a "protected" green arrow into a neighborhood across the street in his small mail jeep (he bascily built himself) a truck ran a red light and T-boned him. The jeep was split in half from about where the windshield meets the hood. And as a reminder in a mail truck the driver seat is on the opposite side so the truck hit him head on from the side he was sitting in. So when he was hit he was launched foreward and his head shattered the windshield, though thanks to god he wasnt launched outta the truck. The mail truck is totaled and the man apoliguzied for running the red light and hitting him but he would admit that to the cops and he insited his was green... But what bothers me the most was when i met them at the medclinic were he wanted to get some x-rays to make sure he was ohk, me and him walked to the nearest fastfood place and while he was eating he looked up and me and stared straight into my eyes and said "Mason i shouldev died... All the truck had to do was hit 6 inches further back and id be dead" Hearing him say that has made me think the rest of the day "what if..." We'll i just pray and thank god for protecting him and this honestly has to be a sign for me to pay more attention. I know to some it was just a small wreck where no one was hurt but to me it was more and i just wanted to share how i felt with you guys because i felt as if i had to tell someone. And i thank everyone that took the time to read this message and maybe yall will understand how i feel also.
