I got an amazing card in the mail today! In January I wrote this post about an accident that my husband and I had witnessed on our drive home from campus one morning. To be honest, I had totally forgotten about the accident, until today. In the mail was a card from the woman that was involved in the accident thanking us for stopping that morning to help her and make sure that she was OK. She let us know that she did end up being fine other than the air bag burns that we had seen, which I was very glad to hear! She also let us know that although she was OK, her van wasn’t as lucky and the insurance company ended up totalling it. But it made me feel good to hear from her and know that everything turned out OK for her. We stopped that day because it’s just who we are, and I would like to think that if I were ever in that same situation, someone whom I’ve never met in my life would do the same thing.

But seriously, I am glad to know that she ended up not being more injured than what she appeared to be that day! With has bad as her vehicle was damaged, I honestly pictured her having injuries that weren’t obvious and lying up in one of those adjustable beds in the hospital for a while. I thought it was sweet that she wrote a note after her signature that her husband and children also said thank you to us for stopping and helping her.
