A car crashed into my office today!!!


WOW!! So the short of it because it's late and I'm very tired...

I was in one of the exam rooms with a patient this morning when I heard this strange scream, heard a loud noise and felt the floor shake under my feet...except I can't remember which order it happend in because I was so shaken up.

I left the room and ran to Tyler's office (the nurse practitioner I work with) to find him on the floor in the doorway obviously shaken up. I can't actually recall how it all took place now, it happend so fast. All I remember is asking if he was okay and trying to figure out what happend. Turned out Tyler was sitting at his desk when he heard a loud screaching sound and looked up out the window in front of his desk to see a car coming right at him. That was when he screamed, tried to jump back and get out of the way, and ended up thrown against the desk behind him and then onto the floor.

Tyler was okay. Just a couple of bruses, nothing too bad, we all hope. Turns out an elderly man (actually Tyler's 9:45!) got confussed and hit the gas instead of the brake and ended up crashing into the building!! What a morning!
