I am home in Maine but I am not married. Something terrible happened, I was in an accident. It was a little after 2 am and I pulled into this truck stop in New York because the fog was very thick. Normally I don’t mind driving in the fog but I couldn’t see 2 inches in front of me. It almost seemed like a Nor’easter except the air was still. I didn’t want to take any chances. I pulled into the truck stop for a couple hours. I called James on the phone.
As he was saying I love you, I heard a truck come closer then a truck hit my side of the truck. I bounced around and hit my head. I woke up in the hospital with a broken arm and a concussion. When I awoke, James was there as was Jenny. The police came and went and asked if I remember anything. All I know is the truck that hit me had no lights on and I don’t remember tires shrieking to halt either. I was parked in the lights I don’t know this happened. James said he heard everything over the phone and called the police. Other truckers were there and said they heard the noise but when they came out to investigate the other truck was gone. I don’t know why someone would just run away especially if it was only an accident.
My truck is destroyed and I am waiting for the insurance money and I will get another. The wedding is on hold. I just got back to Maine today and James had me in bed bringing me food and drinks in bed and giving me hugs. Jenny came by earlier with a card and then her James slipped out of the room for a few minutes. He came back with out her and she left. Right now I don’t care, my head still kind of hurts and arms is killing me plus I am just sore all over.
James hasn’t talked about a new wedding date and I haven’t brought it up either. I think I will take another pain pill and sleep for awhile.
