Fair warning: working extremely hard to not freak tf out. Would anyone care to guess who just had another car wreck less than six months from the one that could've claimed his life?

Yes, it was my 23 y/o son. No, it wasn't his fault. As he was driving home from the laundromat, a deer darted in front of his car. He missed the deer. Details after that are still sketchy for me, given that I am mentally overwhelmed. EMTs called to assist, told my son that if he'd hit that deer on that wet s-curve..

... he would've very likely careened off the steep hillside and, well... The outcome would've been much worse.

Yes, vehicles can be replaced whereas my son cannot. Physically, he's banged up and has a bunch of cuts from broken glass. X-rays & an MRI indicated no new major injuries, including no new trauma to areas damaged from the rollover in April.

16 and I are so relieved he's home and in good spirits, all things considered. However, I'm pissed off about this situation as a whole.

Good morning, CoSo. Thank you all for your compassion and concern last night. Surprisingly, son's either doing much better than expected considering his car *did* land upside-down, or the body aches haven't set in yet. Other than the glass cuts and a few abrasions, only his neck is bothering him.

His car was hauled to our mechanic, so that's our first stop this morning. Hopefully his glasses, wallet, keys, and our family's laundry are still in it. We'll play it where it lands. Love all y'all. 💖
