True, and he's finally home. Spun across 5 lanes of traffic and miraculously didn't hit any other cars, just the median.

Worst part was the insurance people called me first, and I was confused and then they said John was in an accident and well, having no other info, this was a bad thing to say to some one with panic anxiety, or even without. Luckily she was able to calm me down, tell me he was okay and get me to breathe...

John hadn't called me first because he hadn't even gotten back to work yet, and had had no idea they would call me.

Dejavu of the time the airlines at the airport told me they'd lost track of John's plane. Bad thing to say.

Whew.

New Amen to that thought!
But, make sure John is really OK. Adrenaline has a way of temporarily masking injuries.

New I have to agree there.

Physically, he seems fine. He said he was barely jolted when the car hit, because the rear crumpled, rather than impacted and threw him. But he seems a little bit emotionally affected in some ways. Not exactly afraid to drive, but has a new respect, I think, for the weather as a factor. And he's driven in a lot of crazy weather, including a blizzard when we were on a mountain. But he described the spin out as surreal, and having been in one in my own car on ice, I concur.

BTW, great news! The car is probably not totalled, which is a huge relief since we had just spent almost $1000.00 getting it fixed to keep on November 1st. It's nice to have some more good news during this mess with the ice storm.
