Recount of my car crash experience.. @ 10:11 PM
Friday, May 15, 2009
The last 2 days had been a post-trauma recovery period for me - both physically and mentally.13 May - 0020hrsJust when i was exuberantly describing my trip to Darling on my way home from airport, Darling suddenly stepped hard on the car brake. I was jolted out of my speech and turned front to see what had caused him to brake so hard suddenly. All i could see was that the car in front had suddenly come to a stop in our lane (on the PIE) and with the speed (at least more than 100km/hr) we were going, Darling will never make it to stop in time.Not being able to think in my state of shock, i could only scream. Whatever happened next was so fast and felt as if in a daze. I cringed into my seat while Darling tried to dodge and swerve to the left lane but brushed against the side of another fast coming car. Having no way to avoid the ultimate crash, he swerved back and hit right into the stationary car - hard.First was the big "BANG" from the hit, then the cranking of crushing metal followed by the shattering of window glasses. Finally, everything ended with a dead silence. I realised i had been too shocked to react in the whole process that i didn't even blink. And so, I witnessed the collision, the crushing of the car and shattered glasses hitting the front window like pelting rain.Finally, i got out of my trance when i heard Darling's familiar voice anxiously asking me if i was hurt.. i was so relieved to know both of us was safe and immediately asked my sister sitting at the rear passenger behind me if she was alright too.But what i heared totally unnerved me and made me panic. She was crying in pain while saying "我的手断了" You may say i have a wild imagination but the first image that came to my mind when i heard that was a bloody arm being detached from her body with bone jutting out.I almost fainted and could feel my limbs went weak on the spot. Yet at the same time, my sisterly instinct told me i have to stay composed and call for help instead of breaking down. And so, i fumbled for my phone while trying to comfort my sister telling her not to be afraid as i'll call for the ambulance. But in actual fact, i was so scared myself that my trembling fingers took so bloody long to even press 3 numbers - 995 correctly on my touchscreen phone!!After successfully giving the operator our location and informing my worried parents on our situation, i finally turned back and checked on her condition.I was so darn relieved when i saw her arm still adjoined to her body.. Phew! If she had used the word 'fracture' appropriately instead, i wouldn't have got so flustered and turned into jelly limbs lah.. Kns.Anyway it was after i got out of the car to check on Darling, who was talking to the stupid front car driver that i realised i was feeling giddy and nausea myself. I went over to the road shoulder to puke and soon after, the efficient ambulance and my parents arrived.We were sent to the hospital with my worried Mommy beside us in the ambulance. I felt so sad and heartbroken to see her grave and pale worried face looking at us. She was so shaken when i told her about the accident over the phone that she cried and exclaimed "Oh my poor children... where are you all now..." I will never forget these words, her weak and urgent tone, and her sad face when she saw us. They have all expressed her unspoken overwhelming love for us and the pain inflicted on her own heart to see her precious daughters injured. And then, i solemnly vow to myself that i will take very gd care of myself and not let my mommy worry like that again. ************************************************************************************ Anyway, the pain in my neck and down my spine are getting better now and i hope my poor sister can quickly get used to doing things using only 1 hand while her left arm is still in cast. It is most unfortunate that i have to blog about my accident instead of my memorable trip right after i came back. But anyway emotionally, i still need time to get over this before i can have the right mood to blog about happier stuff. >.< I really hope Daddy wont be angry anymore and unjustly reproach Darling for getting us into an accident. I also really really hope my family can be more understanding that nobody had anticipated such a thing to happen and all i can say is: Shit happens. If anyone has to be accountable for it, then i should say all of us had our part in it.Some thoughts that have been running through my mind these few days:If i had not rambled on my trip to Darling that night, would he have concentrated more on driving and took ECP instead of PIE which was actually the nearer route to my house?If the front driver had a gd vision and was alert enough, would he not have noticed the prominent fallen tree branch blocking our lane and still travelled on that lane till such a close distance before he deicded to e-brake?If Darling had travelled at a slower speed, could he have prevented the accident from happening?If Sis had fastened the seat belt at the rear seat, would she have avoided the mishap of her broken arm and spared my parents from the worrying?I guess everything was destined that it happened this way but one lesson learnt and to be shared to everyone is: Pls put on your seat belt even if you are sitting at the rear passenger seat. It may save your life.!
