Cayce's Wreck 10-21-13

After a week, I can finally talk about Cayce's wreck without getting upset and angry. It happened around noon last Monday when he was on the way home from work at the grocery store. He was coming home for lunch and to get ready to go back to work at Accurate. Needless to say, he didn't eat lunch that day.

The road my parents live on has a bridge at the end of it where it forms into Savannah HWY. Right after you go under the bridge, there is a plant entrance to a chemical plant. When Cayce was on the way home, there was a pickup truck in front of him and in front of the pick up, there was a chemical tanker pulling into the entrance, and the pickup slammed on brakes to keep from hitting the tanker, and Cayce slammed on his brakes, and they didn't work, and slammed into the pickup.

It has been the most miserable 8 days of our lives and it has been stressful. I'm just glad that it wasn't worse than it turned out to be, the pickup truck could have rear ended the tanker and Cayce could have rear ended both of them and possibly a big BOOM! and possibly life threatening.

We have a new car now, and I'm scared every time Cayce drives it. It's going to be a while for me to not be worried every time he drives.
