Accident!

It was around 5:30pm, when I got a phone call from my older brother's wife. She was crying as she was talking to me on the phone telling me that my older brother, met an accident.

My brother, who was driving his tricycle crushed into a patrol vehicle, leaving the side car broken. There were 2 ladies inside the tricycle, one is like teenager and the other was her mother. Ung si teenager, nagkaron ng pasa sa my left arm, bukol sa left side ng ulo at pasa parin sa mi balakang. However, her mother was badly hurt. Ung right foot nia, nagkaron ng hiwa because of the broken sidecar. It was bleeding and the mother was shouting for help. Ung patrol van na binanggaan, hindi nmn ganun ka grabe ung ngyari sa sasakyan nila and hindi nmn nagalit ung driver. Instead, he helped my brother about the situation. They headed to the hospital para ma stitch ung hiwa.

My mum, sister and I went to the hospital right away. Nakita namen ung bro ko na sobrang worried dun sa loob ng emergency room habing nitatahi ng doctor ung hiwa sa paa nung naaksidente. Andun din ung asawa nung babae at ung anak na girl. The atmosphere inside was full of emotions. My mum talked to the husband of the woman and asked for apologies for the accident.

After the operation, we all went to the Police Station to file for a report about the accident. They gave back my brother's driver's license and the papers about his tricycle. The issue was then settled. We paid the hospitalization, medicines and the follow up check up for the wounds.

Good thing my brother's wife's aunt arrived and gave some financial support. The bill was then paid.

This was the first accident ever happened to my brother. He said he was too nervous and has some fear of driving so he wont drive yet.

Nobody wished for that to happen. It was an accident. It might have been avoided but it was there already. Good thing that was the only injury happen and nothing very serious. Still, thanks be to God.

Lesson: Check your brakes and the condition of your vehicle always before leaving the house. Also, always look at the road and not to somewhere else.

May everything be fine and let's hope that the medical check up on Tuesday would be enough.

God bless everyone!
