Rock Crawler
Hey guys, been awhile since I've logged in. Thought I would take a moment to explain why. I have been extremely busy with work lately, and haven't had hardley any time to spend with my family, let alone hop on here for even a few minutes.
Two weeks ago I thought what the hell and decided to take the day off. So I left the office around 10am and headed home. Around 230pm I was relaxing in bed when I heard screaming and beating on my door. My wife got up to see what was going on, and then I heard her scream for me.
I jumped out of bed and darted for the back door, but nobody was there. I heard more screaming, and a sound no father ever wants to hear. My youngest daughter screaming and crying in pain. I darted around to the front of the house to see the school bus parked, my daughter lying on the ground in my driveway screaming and I panicked.
I ran over as quickly as I could, asked what happened and she told me "the bus ran over me"
Turns out the idiot bus driver caught her arm in the door while she was getting off the bus, and drug her down the road 35 feet. Then her arm came loose from the door, she fell and he ran over her hand and wrist. 911 was called, half of the states emergency responders showed up and rushed her to vanderbuilt childrens hospital. A few hours later they were going to send her home, and pointed out that her hand was still swelling and getting worse. They called in a specialist and they ended up keeping her for 3 /more days. Luckily there weren't any broken bones. But she has some severe damge to her right hand, torn ligaments/tendons and some nerve damage. The worst part of all of it. She crawled up in my lap the other night and told me she was having nightmares that the bus driver was trying to kill her.
I spoke with the director of schools, benny bills and he told me very directly that I needed to keep my mouth shut about it and let it go.
Needless to say the local news has been all over it, and we already have an attorney.
I would like to send a special thanks to all of the sumner county emergency responders, the local sherrifs department and the state troopers. You guys have all done an outstanding job and you should be proud.
