I just saw a car wreck.. Options

[libertie]

I was driving home towards my mom's house and I honestly can't tell you HOW it all happened because it all went so fast. When the cars both stopped moving, the truck slid over into a ditch, upside down, and this little car was just completely demolished. I saw it happen and stopped far enough back to stay out of it, but there were no other cars around so I immediately stopped and ran out of the car to check on them. I couldn't get into either vehicle and no one was coming out of either one so I started yanking on the little car's door while calling 911. I was completely frantic and upset because there was nothing I could do, so I waited for the sirens and just kept pulling on the door. Finally I got the car door open and the guy inside sorta half turned his head to look at me (at least he was kind of awake). There was blood everywhere and I saw that he'd hit his head pretty hard, so I calmed myself down and ran to my car to grab my purse. I'd gotten this stupid travel first aid kit with a bunch of band-aids for easter last year, but more importantly it had a ton of gauze in it. I ripped every single one of those packages open for his head to make him stop bleeding. >.<

Finally the ambulance showed up and I'd been trying to get into the truck while still talking to the guy in the car to make sure he was okay. The paramedics told me that the guy with the head wound might have bled to death if he had waited any longer, and the guy in the truck was okay aside from a possible concussion. I called my mom at one point, but I was crying too much to explain to her what happened. It was just WEIRD. I stopped at my house in Arkadelphia rather than finishing the drive to Texarkana, for obvious reasons, I need to calm down. My thoughts are really jumbled right now and I know I'm not explaining this very well at all, but yeah.. hi cb, btw.

Honestly, if I could just erase the incident altogether, I would. I never want to see anything like that again. I texted everyone I know in this area telling them to be careful because it's pouring down rain today. But knowing that it happened and knowing there were no other cars around.. I am definitely glad I was there. Obviously neither of them was in a position to call out for help, and someone needed to. I'm glad the paramedics showed up in time.

Honestly, If I was an adult and had gauze in my car, I would gladly replace you. That would be such an awesome thing to tell people... and it would actually be true.

Once the weirdness goes away, it would probably make you feel SOOOO happy to know that you were there and it was all because of you that that man stayed alive.

I definitely wouldn't feel "weird" if I was in that incident. I would freak out during it, but after knowing that everything turned out okay, I would get a sick adrenaline rush.
