Not a great day, sigh.
Dh is ok, and that is the most important thing. We just got back from the hospy, where the ct-scan was clear, so yay on that. They did note some nodules on his thyroid so blah on that, he'll have to follow up.
He was making a left out of our neighborhood when he got hit by a car coming straight. Without its lights on. He never saw it, it was dark and rainy. Airbags didn't deploy in either vehicle. I guess dh whacked his head on the door somewhere, he has a rather impressive goose egg. He didn't lose consciousness, he was aware and oriented etc, so as soon as I was able to talk to him (vs his phone call) I felt a lot better that it would be ok.
Perry ran up to the intersection as soon as dh called me and noted that their other car was still running and the lights were off.
The driver came over to me and told me (and our music teacher, who was with us) it was dh's fault and that he'd not even looked just pulled out in front of him. Etc. They got pretty aggressive. One of us -me, Perry, Heidi?- must had mentioned their lights weren't on because they went to turn them on then and lied to the cops later.
Anyhow. Cops. Ambulance. Linnea panic attack.
Hospital.
The worse part? Because the music teacher was here I couldn't get the CRV out, so dh was driving Perry's Prius. He feels pretty horrid about that, on top of everything else. I'd have rather it were the brand new CRV, feh.
