Hardest thing I’ve had to witness
On 26 June 2026, my husband was involved in a motorcycle crash. Some lady pulled out in front of him, he smashed into the back and rolled down the side and hit his head - and now he’s fighting really for his life at this point. He’s been in TICU and now SICU. I’ve sat by him the entire time since I found out.
What’s crazy is that this woman said she had a hurt neck after the accident - okay, cool, but she got to go home. She’s been at home. My husband however has been struggling to even be taken off sedation at this point. He’s had seizures and a stroke, he has so many fractures and he’s so beat up. He’s on ECMO now, too.
It’s insane because I spoke to him minutes before this had happened, and it only happened 4 minutes from our home. He had only been back 5 days before this happened and he was gone for 8 weeks.
Knowing that he fought so hard as a combat vet and coming home after deployment after so many didn’t… Watching my best friend in this entire world suffering is so heart breaking to see. He didn’t even do anything wrong, he wasn’t being irresponsible or speeding. But a negligent driver has taken everything from us.
I’m just at a loss and I’m doing everything to stay mentally healthy. I’m afraid for the first time in my entire life, actually down to my bones afraid.
Sorry. Just needed to get this out.
