PRAISE THE LORD !!!!!

I was very closed to join my wife in heaven. At 12:10pm today, my car was hit by an oncoming car, running thru a RED LIGHT, at the intersection of Kingsway + Gilley. My car already turned onto Gilley but still about 1/2 way at the intersection. The car was at full speed and the crash turned my car 180 degrees on Gilley. I was heading home to Richmond.

My car rear passenger side was totally smashed up and both side airbags were engaged. I just bought this car a month ago and it has 1600 km.

I apologize to all members who are interested in my recent sale thread regarding my 3 eheim filters. If my wordings are strong in answering your questions, it is me, not you, because I am a little shaken and SHOCK.

I am so glad that my heart is with GOD and I thanked Him as soon as I got hit at the scene. I had 3 witnesses offered to testify that the guy ran thru a RED LIGHT. I AM BLESSED !!!!!

My neck is a little sore but I will be O.K. For sure, I am opening an injury file. I just called ICBC to report everything.

It's not the speed that kills. It's the fact that people ignore red lights. I once had a lady (I was crossing the street and she was running an amber) yell out that amber means GO and get out of my way!

Definitely see a doctor...
I know someone who was in the same situation about 6 months ago - for the first few days after the crash she felt fine, but soft tissue damage creeps up and in some ways is worse than breaking bones. Definitely take it easy, rest, and do very light stretching... and see a doctor.

I hope you recover quickly and that all your claims and everything run smoothly as well.

Best Wishes.
