After that freak car accident that happened on that peaceful Wednesday night, it seems that everything had gotten back into its normal course. Well, that's a good indication that life has to go on and that I get to shake up all those traumatic moments I have experienced that horrible Wednesday night.
Aside from some minor aches, pains, and sores from my neck down to my spine, at least, I already seeked medical and chiropractic attention with the help of my injury lawyer. Together with Kuya George, we both went at Healthview Clinic yesterday in Hollywood, CA for our first treatment. We were advised though to get this treatment for three days a week in three consecutive months time.
Kuya George was been the one who got traumatized a lot. He obtained a minor whiplash and complained with a lot of back pain and numbness to his neck and lower back, while I sustained some stiffness on my neck and shoulder and a sore lower back. Yet, the therapist had advised Kuya George that he can still go back to work but would have to avoid heavy lifting for a while and will have to continue the therapy as indicated and as scheduled.
Today, I have to follow-up with my insurance agent and adjustor assigned to my accident claim but apparently the guy was out-of-town so I just opted to leave a brief message on his voicemail box recounting about the hapless accident and I also left some of my basic information , policy number, and contact number.
I also called the body shop and spoke to my friend Joseph informing him to just wait with my insurance adjustor because he was out-of-town at the moment. I also told him that I already left all my pertinent information with the adjustor.
Now I was back with my usual clinical rotation with Batch 9 at Centinela Hospital Medical Center. Even though I still feel sore all over my body I pushed myself to go back to my teaching work doing light work because I needed some moolah for my bill payments. Hehehe.
And tomorrow, I will be catching up with Batch 5 at Greater El Monte Community Hospital for my weekend clinical rotation for the student's advanced nursing subject at Emergency Room, Pediatrics, Labor and Delivery, and Couplet Care Unit.
Well, it seems that everything was been back to usual now. What happened last Wednesday night was just a bad dream. And I am trying to erase it into oblivion behind my remote mind.
My punctilious and supercilious attitude sometimes irritates me and made me more irascible. It succumbs me to focus on things that are very close to me in vivid details. It made me more like a grumpy and grouchy perfectionist. That's why, it pushed me to really do things carefully and cautiously even though it was not necessarily important. I think that freak incident made me more paranoid about doing things on my own. It is so unnerving to me sometimes to think about it.
And to me, those quidnunc's schadenfreudes can sometimes be mistaken as an irritating and irksome gestures. It made me more distrustful and suspicious of the things happening around me.
Aaah well..... all I know, what had happened that Wednesday night was an undesirable and unfortunate happening that occured unintentionally and that even resulted to a minor harm, injury, damage, loss, casualty, and mishap on us. It was really a very sudden freak accident.
Life would be boring enough if we don't experienced those kind of tests, adversities, and trials. Sometimes hardships comes in an inopportune time and that proves that they don't chose any time and place to happen and occur.
Life is compared to a flowing river where the water sometimes run deeper and sometimes run shallow or even sometimes flow under the ground. And these things that sometimes happen in our lives can be erratic and unpredictable.
Well, as they say, that's what life is. And to some French people they always say; "C'est la vie....." and that's how carefree they are about life.
