My Son totaled his truck tonight!!!

His truck is totaled, but praise God, he is completely fine!!!!  He hit an icey patch, crossed the oncoming lane of traffic, and slammed into a telephone pole on the drivers door.  He has two tiny cuts-one on his ear and one on his wrist, and they are from broken glass.  Now he's out bowling!!!!!  (he's 19)  There are no words for how thankful I am that God had his hand on him.  It's a miracle he walked away.

I hate ice! I remember doing a 360 on the road and luckily no one was around and I did not hit a thing. Came close.
I am so glad your son is ok. Probably a good thing he was in a truck that size.

OMG..thank goodness he is ok! Things like this is what insurance is for! You can replace a car...not a life!!

I am so glad that your son is OK!! He's a lucky young man. Sure...he's out bowling, you on the other hand, are probably a nervous wreck!! Hope the rest of the weekend improves for you both. Hugs, Rockin Robin

I'm so glad it was only the truck that suffered serious damage. I'd have about 20 more grey hairs if I was in your shoes. Actually I think I got one in sympathy for you lol.

Thanks for all the supportive comments, everyone. I am just so thankful he wasn't hurt! I'm going to see the truck today. Although it's still snowing-maybe I'll just stay home!!!!!!

So glad to hear that your son is OK -- what a scare though. Hope we are soon done with all this snow and ice -- I am sure ready for spring!

Denise - I just saw this! I know exactly how you feel. My 17 year old daughter flipped her Explorer on Labor day. Partly due to speed, inexperience and swerving to miss a dog. She was so calm when she called me. Thank goodness..or I probably would have lost it. From the looks of what was left of her vehicle and the few marks that were on her, I don't know how anyone could not believe in God and His angels. I am glad to hear that he is okay. You gotta love teenagers and being the mama. :)

My 22 year old son totaled his car last week. He is in school 100 miles away so he sent me a text of the cut on his head! Thank goodness he and all of yours are ok. We already have the insurance check, but now to find another vehicle. Good luck!
