Garza Johnny NOn Christmas Eve, a father, his daughter and the daughter's husband were driving on a two way road when the car coming the opposite direction entered their lane and hit them head-on. The daughter was taken to the hospital by helicopter, suffering from a severe broken left leg. The father and son-in-law each suffered from fractured backs. The family immediately called me to help and I quickly arrived at the hospital. I actually had to visit three hospitals as they were taken to three different hospitals. Their family of course also visited all three hospitals. It was at the last hospital that I realized that their family would be apart during Christmas. A family member put things in perspective--she said that considering all the damage to the vehicles, they were just happy to have their family members alive. After leaving the hospitals and arriving home late, I made sure to tell my family that I am thankful that they are in my life. I wish everyone happy holidays
