It was only in the last split second that we managed to avoid each other. I don't know how - I guess I must have a guardian angel.
It's just hit me as I prepare to get read for bed that Tony & I could be lying in a hospital bed now - or even the morgue.
What a lovely Christmas for our family that would have been!
Still going over it in my mind. Don't think I'll sleep tonight..
So does anybody on here have a guardian angel?
Thank God you and your husband are ok, what a shock that must have been, try not to focus on what you think could have happened, of course it will take a while for the shock to wear off.
Of course I believe in Angels, they are sent to protect us, they certainly have me, that’s if you believe in them.

I am glad you have got the peeps on here to support you,Carol, just keep talking if you need to.
It’s the shock Carol,it takes quite a while at our age to get over it, take it easy today,

Re: I think I have a guardian angel.
Carol, l am sorry to read of your near miss. The main thing is you’re here to tell the tale.I suppose it’s the shock we suffer at the time that we can’t get it out of our mind.
We can think, ‘what if’ but ‘If’ is one of the worst words as it makes our minds go into overdrive. It conjures up situations that could’ve happened but they didn’t
In a few days it will start to lift from your mind but l suppose then you might feel a bit nervous about driving?

Re: I think I have a guardian angel.
Oh Carol
what a horrid experience, doesn't it shake you up and take your confidence away One time I was driving over the tops between Matlock and Chesterfield and my car slid on the snow into the path of an oncoming Land Rover, we came to a stop within an inch of each others bonnets.
I could hardly drive afterwards for shaking.
I hope you are feeling ok Carol ...

Re: I think I have a guardian angel.
Hi carolI'm so sorry you had this terrible shock but I'm so glad you are here able to tell us about it, the scenario could have been so different.
I was once in an accident, a drunk driver ran into me and I had my Sister, my Son and Nephew in the car with me. We were all in shock and when I got out of the car my legs collapsed, it was terrible, but like you, I lived to tell the tale.
It was yours or Tonys time to go I can imagine you feel blessed to still be here.
If you want someone to talk to I'm a good listener, feel free to give me a call xxxxxxxx
