Just a thought here - we start such news deliveries off with, "I'm OK; I'm not hurt, but..."
Yes, it still stops the heart a bit, because obviously bad news is coming, but you at least get that bit of information in before the word "accident" comes.
By the way, stumbled in here from your C_S comment if you're wondering. You write really well! :^D
My poor husband's rather blunt and to the point at the best of times... I honestly don't think he was thinking clearly enough to realize what starting off like that would sound like. ^_^
And thank you for the compliment! I'm pretty out of practice, actually. I used to keep another LiveJournal and updated just about every day, but Real Life interfered and that kind of fell by the wayside. I'm trying to get back into the groove now.
