A FEW YEARS AGO MY NEIGHBOR CAME OVER AND ASKED ME TO TAKE
HER TO HER MOTHERS HOUSE. HER BOYFRIEND HAD BEEN ABUSING
HER AND SHE WAS 8 MTHS. PREGNANT! I FELT REALLY SORRY FOR
HER SINCE I HAD ALREADY LIVED THRU BEING ABUSED BY MY FORMER BOYFRIEND, I COULD RELATE TO HER SITUATION. EVEN
THOUGH HER MOTHER LIVED ABOUT 20 MILES AWAY, I STILL AGREED
AND OFF WE WENT. IT WAS ABOUT 5 IN THE EVENING AND WOULD BE
DARK SOON AND EVEN THOUGH I DON'T LIKE TO DRIVE AFTER DARK,
I KNEW THIS WAS IMPORTANT. WHEN I LET HER OFF IT WAS STARTING TO GET REALLY DARK. MY SON, WHO WAS 8 AT THE TIME,
CAME ALONG W/ME. SINCE I DON'T LIKE TO DRIVE ALONE EITHER.
WE STARTED BACK AND WERE ABOUT HALFWAY BACK HOME ON THE
INTERSTATE WHEN I SAW UP AHEAD A BIG BLOCK OF WOOD OR COAL,
(I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT IT WAS.) IN THE MIDDLE OF THE
ROAD, ON MY SIDE. IT WAS TOO LATE TO SWERVE TO MISS IT AND
I HIT IT DEAD ON AND POPPED MY RIGHT FRONT TIRE. I HAD TO
PULL OFF ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE INTERSTATE. WHICH IS VERY
DANGEROUS, BUT I HAD NO CHOICE. I WAS IN THE LEFT LANE AND
THERE WAS ANOTHER CAR ON MY RIGHT SIDE. AS I PULLED OFF THE
ROAD AND GOT OUT ANOTHER CAR HIT THE BIG PIECE AND HE WENT
OFF THE ROAD ON THE OTHER SIDE. THEN ANOTHER CAR HIT IT AND
THEY PULLED OVER. THE SECOND GUY GOT OUT AND I HOLLERED OVER TO HIM TO COME OVER. HE DID, AND I TOLD HIM I WOULD
TAKE HIM ANYWHERE IF HE WOULD JUST CHANGE MY TIRE. HE AGREED. WHEN HE FINISHED AND WE WERE ON OUR WAY, HE SAID HE
WAS TO ATTEND A SCHOOL FUNTION, WHICH HE HAD NOT INTENDED
ON GOING TO BUT DECIDED TO GO AT THE LAST MINUTE. I WAS SO
GRATEFUL. I DROPPED HIM OFF AT A GAS STATION WHERE HE SAID
TOO AND ASKED HIM IF HE WAS SURE. I COULD'NT IMAGINE HOW
HE'D GET BACK TO HIS CAR. HE SAID HE'D BE FINE. I WATCHED
HIM WALK INTO THE STATION. I WANTED TO MAKE SURE HE'D BE OK
SO I WAITED. FINALLY, I WENT IN TO SEE IF HE WAS GOING TO
GET BACK OK AND THE GUY IN THERE SAID NO ONE HAD COME IN AT
ALL IN THE LAST HALF HR. I HAD ONLY BEEN WAITING ABOUT 15
MIN. I WAS IN SHOCK!!! I KNOW HE WENT IN THERE. RIGHT THEN
I KNEW GOD HAD SENT AN ANGEL TO HELP ME!!! I WOULD STILL BE
OUT THERE TO THIS DAY, IF IT WAS LEFT UP TO ME. (I AM NOT
MECHANICALLY INCLINED AT ALL! LOL) HE HAD SAVED MY LIFE AND
MY SON'S. WHERE I HAD TO PARK, SEMI'S SPEEDING DOWN THE
HIGHWAY COULD BARELY SEE ME......THERE COULD'VE BEEN ONE
HECK OF A WRECK. I'M SO THANKFUL TO GOD FOR SENDING THAT
ANGEL TO US. THERE ARE TRULEY ANGELS AMONG US!!! GOD SPEED!
