On Tuesday morning  while taking my 3 mile walk,I was hit by a car.I had the red light looked both ways and and back to my right again. As I was in the middle of the cross walk,I was hit by a car and roll off the hood. The car slow down but did not stop.I crawl out the street to the sidewalk.A passing car stop to assit,while bleeding  from the head,I manage to call my son. The good Samaritan call the ambulance. My son,the cops and the ambulance arrived at the same time.

I kept saying I was find,blood flowing from my head and my right  knee was crushed.I had emergency  surgery.I was home on Thursday evening. The nursing staff was amazed that I was up and walking(with a Walker and a physical therapist. They stated that I am recovering faster due to my physical  and mental health. A homecare nurse will becoming on Monday. My son and my sweet daughter in law(who has a masters degree in nursing have assisted me in my recovery.

I am blessed.

Gracie3,

 

Oh my, what a horror out of the blue.  There is a lot of that spread around these days (at least among those I know), and I am sorry you were so severely injured.  I am pleased that you are mending quickly, and you are, indeed, blessed.  Not the least of your blessings is a daughter-in-law with a master's in nursing.

 

Wishing you a rapid recovery and better health!

that person was probably high... and or Texting... with warrents for their arrest and thus kept going... I hope that they can catch him somehow. Such a terrible person to leave you there.

Could you give the police a description of the vehicle?
