June 2nd, my husband Shawn and Joseph, my 4 year old were involved in a car accident in an intersection not far from our home. They are both going to be fine so Thanks be to God! Shawn does not remember anything after slowing down behind two cars at the stoplight. They were both unconscious after the crash for a short time but miraculously they had no trauma to the head at all. Shawn and Joseph were flown out by helicopter to KMC in Bakersfield because of that fact to see if there was any unseen damage. I was able to bring Joseph home late that night and he seems to be bouncing back just fine. Shawn had to stay over night in ER because of liver concerns. He is home now with medications for the pain. In the picture at the top you can see Shawn in the background. He is the one with the red shirt on lying by the road with the neck brace.
I feel very confidant the their angels were the ones responsible for keeping them alive and with no major complications. God is Good.
Shawn and I are just praising God that Joseph is still with us after looking at the pictures. I am so glad that I did not see the car till after seeing Shawn and Joseph first. Gilbert took these pictures today when he went to get our stuff from the car. The van that hit the car actually left his license plate in the trunk of our car. I'm sure everyone will be happy to hear that Shawn's PDA is still working, *Alleluia!!* although he is a little bummed that his cell phone is working too as it is starting to flake out on him. ;)
This is the article that our paper had on the collision.
