I was left stunned by what she said.
"The car was completely totaled, and the airbags deployed just in time to protect you. It was fortunate that the truck hit the rear of your car; you narrowly escaped disaster!" Vivian continued, "If it had been just a little bit different... oh, it's terrifying to think about!"
Under Vivian's description, I recalled that final desperate push on the gas pedal.
If it was indeed as the doctor said, if I had been a bit later, I would have lost all control of my limbs, and I might never have seen my loved ones again.
Later, when I saw the photos from the accident report they released, I was truly shocked.
Moreover, I had to admire Dora's mental fortitude because two days later, she actually showed up in my hospital room.
At that time, my mother and Vivian were with me in the room.
Dora entered with a bodyguard carrying a large bouquet of flowers and a basket of fruit.
