Yesterday, I did not have a ride to work. My work has a points system and If I missed I would have been fired. Well, I decided to drive. I shouldn't have.

Here's where I'm truly blessed, I only have a deep gash on the lower left knee. No broken bones. Just a little bruised up.

Doctor said since I wasn't conscious I wasn't tensed up which could have had worse results.

Thanks VIR!

My leg was pinned underneath the dash. They used the Jaws of life to cut my seat and my leg barley had room to slide out. Truly blessed

I've never had problems like you're experiencing, but I have had heart palps and they are freaky. Just today I kept having this strange feeling in my chest and throat like I needed to cough or something. So I felt my pulse and waited for it to happen again. Sure enough right when that feeling hit my pulse made a thud, pause for a second, then start beating again. Almost sent me into a panic attack actually.

Take it day by day and ask for whatever help you need. Know that you will get back to the point where you can repay the kindness soon so don't let pride get in your way. Hold on to the hope.

Stop ****ing driving before you kill someone else. That's ridiculous and stupid

No one was harmed. What's ridiculous is you lashing out at me when you have no idea of what I'm going through.



I'm paying for my grandmother's chemo treatment while dealing with my own personal problems. Sure, I shouldn't have drove but what about these kids texting and driving. Go ahead ridicule me some more. I knew I was about to pass out that's why I pulled to the right.

What if you hadn't known? It's a terrible thing to do. Comparing it to text&drive people doesn't validate those actions. If you know you shouldn't/can't drive, don't. It's that simple. Next time you might veer to the left instead and kill someone. That's a nightmare waiting to happen with your carelessness.

Times like this you don't need to listen to the critics. You do need to fix your transportation problem. Get the numbers for a coupLe of taxi services in your area. Get the uber app. Get a bus pass. do all three. But stay positive.

Don't see how PJ said anything 'ridiculing' you boss, but for Christ's sake, you're passing out semi regularly and you're going to throw your ass behind the wheel of a missile on a public road?

Slow life down and think **** through, hopefully your issue is figured out shortly and you'll be back to normal, but your job isn't worth someone's life due to your negligence.

While I agree with yours and PJ's point I think the reason he took exception was the way he came across.

Rock, I definitely agree that you should stay off the road, but I think York makes a good point. Stay positive and I will keep praying for you and your grandmother.

Everyone has bills. I'm not judging. I don't recommend he drive, but I'm not judging.

I'll admit I'm judging. He got behind the wheel knowing there's a possibility he may not be conscious for the entire drive. It's not like texting it's like bad drunk driving. Sugar coat it all you want but that is the reality

I hope he gets the help he really needs. I also hope he thinks about those depending on him and the innocent people he puts in danger by getting behind the wheel

If I felt that getting behind the wheel in that situation was the only way I could provide for my family, I would do it.
