We were on the Erie Canal on our boat headed to Canada, when we were notified that he had put his car into a wall on a NYC highway--the only thing that saved his life, was that he was a stone's throw from Columbia Preysbeterian Hospital--he was supposed to enter college in the fall-that never would happen. It was a horrifying 3 weeks in the hospital-not knowing if he would make it.
This is one reason I'm harsh on people who think being cool is more important than being safe.
