Well, what else is going to happen? [View all]

I’m setting in ER, waiting for the doctor to come in.

I was heading back up to see my mother, but didn’t get to far!

I was headed west on a major street in west Omaha, approaching an intersection controlled by stop lights. As I was just into the intersection, all I saw was a car turning left, no time to react we collided and….. a totaled car and a five minute to the hospital. I hurt on my right side, right knee and the ankle I had surgery on. I will update as soon I hear more. Oh, the young lady was ticketed for failure to yield the right of way. Not my fault!
