My so very upset update

Original post by Future Mrs H

First of all I want to thank you all for all your good thoughts and prayers.
On the way to work this morning I had an accident. I hit a pedestrian while making a left turn. I am not making excuses but between the rain and it being dark out the driving conditions were horrible. From what the EMS and police told me is that he was going to be ok- no broken bones- no bleeding just a little bruising. Even though they all told me he will be ok and everyone has told me that these things happen, The police and EMS all told me they know it was an accident. I am having a very hard time dealing with this. I keep going over in my head how this happened and how I didnt see him. I called my cousin who is a priest and talked things out with him. I wanted to make a confession of sorts, but he told me that no confession was necessary since it was an accident. I am still crying and I cant seem to forgive myself. This is so hard trying to deal with this.
Again I want to thank you all for you prayers and hope I can count on all your continued support.

I'm so sorry you're going through this, C. The important thing is, the pedestrian is okay with minimal injuries. It could have been a lot worse, but it wasn't. You didn't do anything wrong - the weather this morning was atrocious, and I'm sure you exercised as much caution as possible. It was an accident, nothing was done on purpose or maliciously.
I know, it's easy to say those things when I'm not in your shoes. But you stayed with the man and waiting for the authorities and spoke with your cousin about things, which are all of the right things to do, both for the pedestrian and for yourself.

We're all here for you if you need us!

Re: My so very upset update

you are a great person and you would never want to cause harm to someone else...that is why you feel so bad even though it was an accident getting into an accident is stressful and traumatic no matter how big or small it is...you need time to get over the stress of it and i know that you will feel better soon

Aww Celia......you need

Accidents will happen, we all go through them and you don't need to beat yourself up over it. Bad weather always creates scenarios where accidents will happen. I am just sooo glad and thankful that the pedestrian and you are okay. That is the most important thing....neither one of you got hurt.

So take a deep breathe, relax and know that everything is going to be okay.

Re: My so very upset update

This was clearly an accident and something that you shouldn't beat yourself up for. You are a good kind hearted person with no intention to ever do this to someone. I want you to know that we all think highly of you and that you are human and make mistakes. And left turns are very hard to do in crap weather like this... and clearly it was mother natures fault not yours. You shouldn't do this to yourself.

We need more good people like you in this world. Please don't feel so horrible...

Just breathe. Relax and breathe, and believe me when I tell you this is why you have insurance! It's scary and upsetting of course, but not nearly as scary and upsetting as you're imagining it to be.


Get yourself checked out too! With everything that's going on you might not feel any residuals from the accident for a couple of days, but I urge you to have your doctor take a look.
