They’re Okay, But…UMC Trauma Center Isn’t All That Fun
I guess you might be wondering why I was at UMC’s Trauma Center, huh? My parents were in a car accident early this morning. Totalled the car, but fortunately, didn’t total my parents. My dad is a little bruised and burned from the airbag, but is fine and will be going to a private doctor for a check-up. Right, Dad!? My mom, who is tiny, was hit pretty hard by the airbag and had a lacerated liver—she’ll be spending the night at the hospital.
Advice to everyone - get a car with airbags if you can. It’ll help you survive smashing into a cement barrier. Also, wear your seatbelts. And, to help prevent injuries, wear your seatbelt properly. Seatbelts: Why You Should Use Them While I was in the trauma center waiting room, quite a few people died from car accidents. My guess is, most of them weren’t wearing seatbelts. If you’re reading this, I probably like you and want you to stick around for a while. So, wear your seatbelts. In a few days, I’ll show you the car and you can decide if seatbelts and airbags are helpful.

Oh my. I hope they’ll be super okay soon. Thank goodness for airbags.
(If it was the fault of a drunk teenage driver, I’m gonna have that idiot shot, but since youd idn’t mention anything like that, it’s probably not the case)

Your picture cracked me up. I must get a camera phone to document my fascinating life. LOL
I hope that your parents are quickly improving. That must have been quite a scare. :(
