In-Laws in Bad Accident



Recommended Posts

Update:

MIL was treated and released. Both SIL's are being evaluated at another hospital. Neither is in serious condition. They were sent to different hospitals.

They were travelling here from our hometown about 40 miles away when my SIL lost control of the car, crossed the center median into the southbound traffic lanes and rolled the vehicle 4 times. Foutunantly they were all wearing seat belts, no one was ejected from the vehicle, and no other vehicles were involved. My MIL had to be removed from the vehicle by the jaws of life and was airlifted to the hospital where they evalauted, treated and released.

It was a rough night, all I could do was sit and wait. I am glad I had this place to come and keep some of my time occupied. Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers. They are all very fortunante not to have any serious injuries.

I am going crazy waiting on more news so I decided to post it. My mother-in-law and two of my sister-in-laws were involved in a bad car accident today. My MIL had to flown to the hospital by helicopter. I only know that much because it is on the local television station's website (My Mom called and told me it was on the 10 o'clock news). I am waiting on my husband to call with an update, I wish he would hurry up.

I am working out of town through tomorrow and then we were suppose to be heading to Mexico for my surgery. Will have to just sit here and wait for more news. It is to late for me to get a flight home tonight since we live in a smaller city.

I should say that when I did talk to my husband he said the injuries did not appear to be critical or live threatening but didn't know much else.

Hi Barb. Thanks for the update.

In 1987 my older sister was tragically killed in a car accident. I can certainly relate to those moments of knowing something happened but not knowing the condition of your loved ones.

SO glad you are giving us good news. Your SIL's and MIL are very fortunate.
