i was leaving work with my good friend javier carreno, and he is a crazy driver. He was in a hurry, and then he past me, then we met again on US1 and he was trying to get infront of me again, we were in the middle lane, he was behind me, and i got in the far left lane and he got in the right lane, cut a guy off, then i looked up in my rear view mirror and i saw his SUV flipping. so i turned around and went up there, and i wasnt sure if it was him so i sat in my car in shock for a few minutes and i didnt know what to do, so i called my sister, then i got out of the car. i saw him laying like 20 feet from his car with the ambulance, they had the oxygen mask on him, then he took it off and looked like he was going to say something, then they put it back on, and they were like "javier" "javier" a bunch of times, then they put him in the stretcher, and he wasnt moving. then they told me he died.
i was/am so devistated. hes a great guy and he didnt deserve that.
so this morning, i went to work because of a problem with javiers register (ironic) and i fixed it, and then his aunt called, and my boss talked to her and she was like oh hes in st. mary's hospital, and my boss was like.. you mean he died there? and she was like OH NO they revived him. THANK GOD. i friggin saw him die, and then he faught to stay alive and cheated death, and now he's in critical condition though, and his spine is soo messed up, but he can move his hands which is a good thing, he cant talk yet, and he had internal bleeding but they are taking care of that.
i am so thankful that he is alive, he means a lot to me, and even more to me now to have seen him almost leave me.
i've never had a reason to believe in fate or religion before, but i think i might now because of that freak accident.
so basically a guy across the street saw it, and said he flew out the window or something and he hit the car while they were in the air tumbling,
then there was the guy that javier cut off and saw it right infront of him, javier hit the curb and lost control. and the car flipped a bunch of times. if he would have been wearing his seat belt he probably wouldnt have been hurt so bad. =/, so i'm still in shock that happend.
