Topic: Prayers please :o( Posted: 23 October 2007 at 8:17am |
Willie just called to say that his best mate at work has been in an accident on the motorway out by Takanini and it sounds pretty serious, apparently they are cutting him out of the truck at the moment. Willie said their other mate was in front of him and saw the whole thing and he reckons Jim either fell asleep or had a heart attack coz the truck just went swerving off the road. Willie's going to call me when he hears anything but I am so worried! I hate when things like this happen, it reminds me how vulnerable Willie is when he's out there on the road.

PS. Sorry to anyone stuck in the traffic on the motorway, it's apparently caused a huge backlog.

Oh God, it made the Herald already http://www.nzherald.co.nz/section/1/story.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=10471503.
Although that story says he's been freed from the truck so fingers crossed Willie will update soon.

Heard about a truck jack knifing on Breakfast this morning too but sorry I didnt pay attention to details.
Hope its all ok. I worry every day aboutDHdriving an hour to work along SH1 (we are hoping to shift closer soon). But a friend told me that apparently by telling someone to "drive safely" actually reduces their risk of having an accident. I always tell DH "love you, drive safely" when he leaves in the morning. So I am sure you are "protecting" Willie.

I think everyone heard it on the radio this morning  It's headline news.
Latest update from Willie is that Jim is at Middlemore hospital but that's all he knows so far. He's trying to get hold of Jim's daughter who is with him to find out more, and I'm thinking about heading out there a bit later on to see how the family are doing. It's the same mate who's wife passed away very suddenly a few months back so I can only imagine what their kids are going thru now
