It is 12:30 in the morning and I don't know what else to do other than blog. I can't go to sleep. My phone rang around 10:45 p.m. and it was my brother calling to tell me that my mom had been hit by a car. I am shock. I don't know what to do. I hate living so far away! It isn't easy to get home, and even if it was, what would I do with the kids?
I still don't know any of the details, and I am sure she will eventually be fine. What I understand so far is that she has a broken arm,jaw and eye socket, as well as some lacerations on her face.My poor mom. My heart breaks for her and my dad to have to go through something like this. I feel like one major trial in our family is enough...why do we need something like this? Why did it have to happen to my poor, sweet, little mom? She doesn't deserve this. I know she is strong, and she is tough, but still.
Part of me is really upset that now my parents can't come visit me for Thanksgiving.I was so excited and really looking forward to their visit, especially since they were going to be here for almost two weeks. We just got their plane tickets last week.
I am just so sad about all of it. Just sad. Life is sad. I am tired of being sad.I feel like throwing up.
I am tired and sad, and probably will regret posting this in the morning. But it's how I feel right now, so I am posting it.

Kerry--
I'm so sorry! I hope after some good sleep you are feeling a little better. I'm so relieved to hear that your mom survived the accident and will eventually be okay. It's hard to be away from family at times like this. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Kerry, I am sorry to hear that. It must be incredibly stressful to not be close enough to help out. Hopefully you were able to get some sleep and today is a new day. I have to say that to myself often lately, another day begins anew.

Kerry, I just heard about this from my mom. I am so sad, too. I wish I could give you and everybody in your family a big hug and a shoulder to cry on. I hope that Tim and Ashley are able to help your mom and dad, since your mom and dad have always been there for them. ALL the family is praying for our dear Aunt (etc) Karen. Love you!
I'm so sorry! That is awful! She's in our prayers (as are you).
I'm sorry, Kerry! I wish I were there to take care of your kids or do something for you!
Kerry-I am anxious to hear more news. I am so so sorry--it is hard when our mommy's are hurt, b/c they were always the ones to take such good care of us. We were just there in SD--want me to go back and meet you there to watch your kiddos? I willl keep her in our prayers and put her name in the temple. Get some sleep! Thinking of you...
Hey there Kerry, I hope today is looking better than yesterday and that your mom continues to recover. Thank you for the call...i guess when I feel the prompting to check blogs i should just do it!!!! call me ANY TIME.

Heidi
