we were in a bad car accident

and all i can say is thank god that we left chloe home!

we were leaving modesto, from our HAND meeting comming home and we were on the freeway. Dh and i were talking about the truck acting funny, and he said "well at least it will get us home" and in that instant something happened. we were in the fast lane (of a 4 lane freeway) and we veered off toward the center divide into gravel, and dh threw his arm across me and said "were going to be ok", he lost total control and we veered back into our traffic on the freeway and thats when the truck flipped, it flipped side over side at least 4 times until we came to a stop off of the freeway on on the far right side (we flipped across 4 lanes of traffic). our truck (our only vehicle) is totaled! the roof and windshield crushed in and class went everywhere. when we were in the fast lane there was a car riding in the lane next to us, just a little behind us, and when we flipped the first time i was facing traffic and all i saw were headlights, i dont know how that car missed us but no other cars were involved. A deisel blocked the 3lanes of traffic closest to our truck even though it was off the road just to make sure that nobody hit it. they took me to the ER to have x-rays and such to make sure i was ok. i have road rash on my elbow where the freeway rubbed my arm when we flipped (after my window shattered). and we have cuts and bruises all over. We are achy but fine and i will thank god everyday that i decided to leave chloe home!
