A Close Brush With Death...

At 2150 last night, I rolled my car down a hill.

If I didn't have a seatbelt I'd be sitting in a morgue. Just by the look of the car I should not be walking today.

One of the cops came up to me and asked me "How the hell did you get out of that?!"

I came over the hill, lost control, hit the ditch, rolled across the road and down the road at least 3 full times and landed upside down. None of the doors would open so I had to force one of them open. I remember hitting the ditch and suddenly the car moved like it wasn't supposed to. I started screaming and I saw all the glass shatter against the pavement and it kept going. My seatbelt held me where I was and my head hit the top of the car. It was dark so I'm not exactly sure where I was when it was over...but I was less than a quarter mile from my driveway. I got out, sat down in the ditch...took my sock cap and gloves off and made some calls....

If anybody had been in the passenger seat, I would've killed them.

I came out with back pain....they took me in the ambulance. CAT scans and X-Rays came back good. No blood in my urine.

God has a purpose for me on this Earth and it wasn't my time.

I can't even begin to think how lucky I am. Somebody up there was looking out for me.

I couldn't even read any of the texts/posts from my friends....I couldn't do it without breaking down...
