Thursday June 15th @6:30 me and my mom we’re on our way to work, we were close to railroad tracks when a truck came over the tracks and his trailer came off his truck, and right at us. It hit the front left blinker, slid us to a curb, and then caused us to flip 2 times slide on the roof and then right side up. All airbags deployed. My mom walked out with just a seatbelt burn, I walked out with just a gash in my arm, and a sprained ankle. I got stitches in my arm and mom got treated for her burn. We were truly blessed to be able to walk out of our wreck with minor injuries, I truly believe that God was with us and was in control.

My Uncle Nathan was in a car accident April 21st, and is still in the hospital from it. He had his spleen removed at one hospital, and then had to be transferred to another. He had to have both legs amputated and is paralyzed from the waist down, both lungs collapsed, and was on kidney dialysis. He hasn’t been able to talk since April 21st. He’s on a ventilator still but slowly is getting better. I truly believe that God won’t give us what we can’t handle. Yesterday my Grandparents had 2 of their 4 children in the hospital do to car wrecks, and 1 grandchild. We are so blessed to be able to just walk out of it. But I will say I have had severe anxiety since I was 8, and got put in a private Christian school my freshman year due to being bullied. So because the wreck was so traumatic I haven’t been able to shake it. It’s like when I sit still, I can still hear the impact, I can still feel is flipping, the seatbelt sight on my hips, the glass falling on my lap. I’m not sure how to describe how I feel, I’m crying constantly and feel so vulnerable and fragile. Is it a possibility that I have ptsd? I don’t want to sound dramatic. My entire childhood people would try to make me look stupid for being sad or upset. I haven’t really talked to anyone about it because of that reason. My Name is MaryBeth I’m 17 and I’m lucky to be alive.❤️
