This is my grandmother's car. My grandmother, some of you may remember, lost her husband just one year ago after a terrible botched surgical disaster. A week after we buried him she lost a large portion of her home to Hurricane Gustav. A tree also landed on this car. It survived, and so did she. The house and car were fixed and she kept going. She's had a tough year but was finally moving onward.
Like most ladies her age she's very persnickety about her hair. She goes to get her hair "done" every week. Every Friday. This Friday morning when she left home to have her hair done, she was rear ended by an 18 wheeler. A very large truck that carries very heavy loads. She was at a complete stop waiting to turn but the truck driver didn't notice. He plowed into her going 45 mph. That's the speed limit. I bet he was going faster.
Can you believe none of her 82 year-old bones broke? She's been hospitalized since then. She's quite shaken, bruised, and in a lot of pain. But nothing was broken!! She said she saw Jesus standing by her. Obviously He's not ready for her yet, and for that we're thankful!
