Been There

Last Summer on my way home from work, I took a different route, oddly enough. A busy road, and a motorcyclist failed to see that the SUV in front of him had stopped - he slammed into the back of the SUV and was thrown from the bike.

I was in a series of cars that came to an immediate stop. Everyone got on their cells, but no one knew CPR. I do know CPR and started working on the man, even though I didn't know if it was helping.

The EMTs arrived and relieved me of CPR. I went back to my car, turned around, and went home. He died at the hospital 2 days later. I never again want to see the look of death in someone's eyes.

I hope I gave him enough so that his family could say good-bye.

I travel that road often, and am reminded everytime I pass that spot.

It's hard enough on this almost 50 year old, it would really suck for a teenager.
