My BIL was in a head on collision and was dragged 20-30ft. He's banged up and had a minor brain bleed, but they're hoping that stops soon. He may need surgery on his wrist but is responding to his name so we are thankful for that.

Oh my gosh wine. Your poor sister. I'm so sorry! I hope the bleed stops and the wrist is the worst of it.

I'm unsure, I'm hearing little bits from my mom (mainly focused on BIL), so I don't have the whole story. I'm assuming the other driver stopped and has spoken to police but I really don't know. The dragging 20-30ft makes me question things a bit.

We had a good time at the zoo party and then walked around for an hour or so afterwards. Stopped at Wally World for groceries and came home and ordered Five Guys for dinner #typical The house catty-corner to us hit the market for sale late this week. It's been a veritable parade through there since, and just had another group of lookers stop by. They looked nice and of an age to potentially have young kids (yes, I went out to water the plants...just call me Gladys Kravitz). Hoping it will sell to someone decent, lol. eta: also, in case you've been on the edge of your seat--ha--our friend in TX did not take the $200K and they are still under contract on the house

The dragging 20-30ft makes me question things a bit. In all honesty 20-30 ft isn’t that far if they were going 70 mph. I really hope he’s okay and has a smooth recovery. I can only imagine what your sister went through receiving that phone call. So scary. I’ll be praying for him and your family.

wineallthetime, holy crap, how terrifying. Glad it sounds like he will be ok. Please keep us updated. MH rides a motorcycle (not so often anymore b/c who has the time) but this is my biggest fear.

My sister has a tracker on his phone cause she worries (he knows) and it showed him stopped so she figured he was getting gas or something. Then it showed him at the hospital, terrifying!

We are at our gym’s outdoor pool today then hanging home and doing chores. My MIL arrives tomorrow night and i like to have my house nice and clean for when a guest arrives. Besides that we are gonna grill and probably play outside with our neighbors. When does cagoldi get back? I can’t wait to hear about her trip. I am also wondering when she gets back. Maybe chrisy01 knows. This Friday I believe
