In other news....
Earlier this week I was hit by a SUV while riding my bike to Safeway. As I was approaching the parking lot, I slowed down & watched the cars leave one by one to make sure I knew when it was my time to head into the parking lot. As I got closer, I assumed the driver of the SUV looked both ways & so I headed towards the parking lot entrance & unfortunately the driver didn't completely stop & was going fast enough that I couldn't use my bike breaks & ended up getting hit so hard I flew off my bike, into the street with my shoes off & everything.
I instantly scrambled for my phone to call my boyfriend of almost 9 years but was so helpless & in shock. Luckily more than 7 people came to my aid & helped me to the side of the rode. The girl who hit me was crying hysterically & sobbing how sorry she was & wish this didn't happen. I was in too much pain to care.
I was sent to the hospital in an ambulance, got stitches, medication, bandaged up & x-rayed. Luckily I didn't break any bones but unfortunately my knee was tore open, my face/ legs became swollen, my body bruised & myself all together helpless, limp & weak.
I been in a lot of pain since then. I have to take medication every 4 hours just to get through the day without crying. In this time I hope all of you can be patient with me & once I rest up I will get back to completing all orders. All orders placed this week & forward will be delayed up to a week.
If you are driving PLEASE look both ways!!!! Be courteous of bicyclists & pedestrians. I have crutches & can barely walk but I hope with lots of food/ rest I'll heal up fast. Thanks to everyone who continues to support my shop & leaves me such sweet comments!!! You guys are so amazing. Bless your hearts & your souls!!

oh no! this sounds horrible! I'm always very aware of drivers because they are always so careless, on their phones, not even looking at the road, it makes me so angry! I wish you a fast recovery and send you lots of love XOXO
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!! Truly means a lot ❤ This is definitely a very physical & emotionally painful experience for me unlike anything else. I am just happy it wasn't a child that got hurt. :( All drivers need to take precautions & I hope everyone will just learn from this incident.
