Easter Miracle

Early Saturday Morning, Easter Eve, Adam was in a terrible car accident. He was stopped at a red light, behind one other car. He heard tires squeal, and just as he looked into his rear view mirror a car was coming at him fast and in an instant hit him going about 50 miles per hour, slamming Adam's car into the car in front of him and both of them ending up in the middle of the intersection. Adam being stunned just sat there, he said when he saw the car coming up behind him he thought he was going to die. The other drivers got out of their cars and came to check on Adam. He got out of his car and couldn't believe he wasn't bleeding or broken. It was truly a micacle. None of us can believe how he came away only sore and a headache. Of course it was tramatic and he was pretty shook up, and what made it worse, Faren and I were in Florida for the weekend and Bryan had gone to his in-laws for the weekend. So Adam called my brother Howard and Howard and Burke came and got Adam and took him home. Adam said it weird having to come home and be by himself. Bryan and Heather left Gilmer early on Saturday to check on Adam. I'm so glad they were able to that. I felt like Adam should of gone to the emergency room, just because he looked fine on the outside didn't mean everything was okay on the inside. But Bryan didn't take any chances he checked out everything and bone and he said if any thing looked suspiscious he wasn't taking any chances and would take Adam to the ER. By the time we got home on Sunday, Adam was feeling alittle better, and his headache wasn't to bad. Bryan checked him again and he could tell Adam's symptoms were improving. Adam went to work on Monday and came home looking like he does every other day, maybe just a little more tired, but I can't believe he was able to go to work all day. His car was totalled, smashed in the rear and front. I don't know if i even want to see it. But I'm so thankful he wasn't hurt any worse, none of us can believe that, and I'm so thankful Howard was home and able to help Adam get home. and that Bryan and Heather came home to help Adam. Having a family is wonderful.
