Sue, will you be practicing your cannon balls?

[bakersfieldpethead]

Is Sam gonna be ready to go for this? Its a few months away, but I know bad accidents can still have a lasting affect on the body.

[brent]

What happened to Sam? Is there going to be BBQ there? If so, I might come.

She sent an e-newsletter out talking about recovering from an auto accident, she almost went over the bridge into the water and I guess they had to use the jaws of life to get her out of the car.

From Sam sent out on December 28, 2011

....I'm home recuperating and this is the first day that I really felt like grabbing my laptop to send out some updates. Some of you already have heard the news and seen the pictures on FaceBook but some of you may not know yet...

Last Wednesday (Dec. 21) about 4pm, I was in a serious car accident. On the way home from a dentist appt. in the Cities in crossing a bridge in Clearwater, MN, I hit black ice and totaled my truck. All I tried to do was avoid another car that was serving on the bridge and apparently hit that same spot of black ice and lost control of my truck hitting the guardrail on my side and then going head on into the guard rail on the oncoming traffic side almost going over the edge. All I remember thinking was 'Lord, don't let me go over and hit the water'.....the next thing I remember is rescue workers cutting me out of my truck with the jaws of life, me muttering "Jesus, Jesus, Jesus", rescuers finally getting my feet free out of my shoes, being put on a board and screaming in pain in my ribs and being transported to the hospital.

A policeman on the scene also had fallen and broken his arm and he came along in my ambulance.

In later talking to the tow truck driver Warren found out that I had almost gone over the railing of the bridge, but somehow (I know it was God) ended up back into traffic and then being hit by two cars. The tow truck driver said I was lucky to drive a Toyota truck, because in a car I would have been dead and somehow by a miracle my legs weren't broken, which they should have been according to the space that was left.
Unfortunately my truck is totaled....insurance was liability, so there's no compensation for it.

Now, resting at home I have a 4-6 week recovery period ahead of me to heal my 4 broken ribs and a cracked pelvis bone. The knots on my head and swelling have already gone down some and the cuts on my "guitar-hand" are beginning to heal and most of the swelling has gone away too. I have a big bruise on my nose too.

I'm just so thankful to be alive and being given a continued chance to serve Jesus with my music.

According to some friends I have a few new nicknames: 'Crash', 'Shuffle' (because I'm having to use a walker to get around) and recent 'Bruiser', because of the bruise on my nose.
