Just when you thought all was well .!

[JR]

Hi all
I was just sitting looking through the forums, enjoying a leasurery read when my mobile rang .
As soon as I saw my ex Son in laws name I had that feeling ". This is not going to be just a chat "
Up shot is Jack the 19year old grandson has hit a tree in his car coming home at 2000. Has been cut out and taken to Peterborough Hospital .

At least he is ok suffered a broken wrist and some cuts to his head. Of course I had to tell Management, who went into warp factor 10 mode., then ring his mother in Devon, and put her in the picture. Life can change in an instance.

No doubt later we will know what's happening etc .
Nothing I can do at the present, just have to wait , and hope it was just a skid or speed and not drink. !
John .

Chin up John. Let's hope the lad is o.k. It reads as though he got away reasonably lightly - Thank goodness. Cars are replaceable.
After my little sermon about the stone in my window too. We just don't know what's around the corner do we?

Hi John
Sounds as if he was lucky. I am sure the facts will come out soon.
None of us really know what lies just round the corner.

John,
Nasty shock for you all. Let's hope all turns out well and if he was doing something that he shouldn't have, that he will learn from it. Meanwhile you can still enjoy Christmas together. Our thought are with you. Take care.

Guys.

I really appreciated the posts. This morning we heard from Anne, his mother, apparently he was on his way home from work when he went off the road and hit the tree. Attended by 3 ambulances, 2 fire engines plus the police he was cut free. Both wrists broken , one badly, cuts and to the head and face. Other than that he seems to have been very lucky indeed. What caused the accident isn't clear but thank God he'd not been drinking, or he'd be in even more trouble from me! Daughter on way from Devon, so going to be a hectic weekend I feel.

John.

He is a very lucky lad judging by your description of his injuries.

Stay positive old mate......:thumb2:
