Auto Accident

[Emislity]

so Saturday Night, my son and I were in a car accident. We hit practically head on with a Police officer. I didn't at the time remember much of what happened, but I knew I saw my light as green. Luckily for me there was a witness that saw the same thing. The officer also said his light was green. I later found out that the officer asked the witness to leave. The witness decided that had he left, the officer's true red light would indeed turn to green. I have indeed located a lawyer. My son has about 30 stitchest to his face, but in the end he'll be ok. I'm just really sore, but in the end I'm going to be ok as well. No one has been ticketed yet, and my lawyer says they'll probably try to get off by saying it was no one's fault. Anyway, I doubt I'll be in game much, for I really am having a hard time walking, but for those few friends that I do have, I wanted you to be aware of why I haven't really been around much. You never know how precious life is, until you almost lose it in your arms when you look down at your 4 year old son covered in Blood.

God Bless you all, and have a great time playing your game. I'll be back when I figure out what's going on with this crap.

I'm glad to hear that everyone is mostly unhurt.

If the officer did have personal reasons for asking the witness to leave, that's horrible. Hopefully you have the witness' name and information for your lawyer to contact. I guess the cop didn't have his police lights on or this would have been a rather cut & dry case.

Again, hope everything goes well.

[Soulpieced]

If the cop ran a red light without his lights on and caused an accident with you involving what you say are pretty serious injuries, you may very well want to indicate to your lawyer you want to prosecute to the full extent of the law. The cop asking the witness to leave may also be possible evidence getting him in further trouble if he did it in order to cover his ass. Hope everything turns out ok.

[Shalla]

I don't like seeing children hurt :( I would probably cry my eyes out and go insane if I saw my children.. or any children covered in blood like that.

Dunkin' Donuts was about to open, the color of the light was the last thing on the cops mind.

[DeV]

Glad you're both ok, especially your son...poor thing. Getting into an accident with a police officer has to be a pretty frightening experience.

Cops run stop lights and the ocassional red light extremely frequently in Chicago.

[HarmNone]

I'm glad nobody was seriously injured, hon. Hope you both feel better soon, and that things work out so the cop gets what's coming to him if he tries to lie about it.

[Nakiro]

Get well soon! (is there a smily for that?).

[Emislity]

so Thank You for those of you that have sent your concern through both here, my email address or my AIM. My son is doing good for his injuries, I'm having a pretty hard time moving around, but in the end, God's going to make it all ok. Don't take advantage of something you may never get to hold onto again.

Anyway, thank you all for your concern, and I'll keep you informed periodically.

God Bless you all....

[Shari]

I cannot BELIEVE a cop would have the nerve or the audacity to tell a witness to leave. That just makes him look completely guilty.

Get well and good luck with the entire situation.

That was mean.

It also made me laugh so unbearably hard.

WARNING!!!! DO NOT GO TO THAT LINK UNLESS YOU HAVE A STRONG STOMACH!

[Emislity]

well first off he hasn't had much sleep, secondly who gives a crap what or how it's spelled as long as you understand what he's trying to say. Back the heck off him, if you'd have just watched your 4 year old go through that I'm sure you wouldn't be worried about spelling and punctuation.

[AnticorRifling]

You'd be suprised.

[Bobmuhthol]

Oh no you suck at driving and caused your kid to get hurt. It's not Anticor's fault. Back off.

[Sean]

Come on seriously guys. As much as I may dislike emislity its hard for me not to feel some level of sympathy for her son who is a victim in the situation no matter of whose fault it was. I think this would be a good time to employ the if you don't have something nice or positive to say lets keep it to ourselves.

[Emislity]

Yea Bob, i suck at driving, hence the reason it wasn't my fault the officer ran the red light. I think that instead of turning this into something to come off on insulting me, actually Bob, I expect you to be an ass, forget I said anything. The point I was making was, who cares about spelling and punctuation. Everyone knew what he was TRYING to say. Don't knock him for just telling his side of the story.

Bob, please for once in your life, stop being an asshole. I don't wish what happened to my son and I on anyone, and I sure as hell wouldn't be insulting you over something so immature.

[Bobmuhthol]

If she didn't turn into Emiscape I wouldn't have said anything.

<<Yea Bob, i suck at driving, hence the reason it wasn't my fault the officer ran the red light.>>

I know a lot of people who don't suck at driving. They never hit police cars.

Sympathy doesn't work if you want to insult me for something Anticor said. You expect me to be an ass? Great. I expect you to get eaten out and kissed.

[Emislity]

Bob you are so biased already, I could give a rats ass about your comments from what I said before, and as for Anticor, he's actually a good friend of mine. I was just saying to back off Shawn because we've been through alot the past week and it wasn't fair of what you were doing is all. Neither of us have had much sleep, and as for hitting the police officer, well yea I damn sure planned that one, Thanks. Like I said, it wasn't my fault, and time I saw him it was too late to do anything anyway. Honestly it was like I looked up and there he was after coming around a blinded curve. Truly there was no way I could have avoided it or I would have done so. I don't want your damn sympathy or pity for that matter, I was just letting the people that aren't assholes know what happened, and let people know why I really wasn't in GS.

Thanks,
Emislity (Sara)

[Meos]

I'm gonna play devils advocate.. but it's hard to take someone seriously when they spell "anyways" as "anywayz" atleast it wasnt "n e wayz"

But honestly, good luck to you and your son in court... damn the man.

[Bobmuhthol]

I'm so biased. :(:(:(:(

Anyone that's near me for more than 5 seconds can tell I'm not, actually.

Good to know the kid is ok.

Well today my son got his stiches out, but in order for them to do it they had to make a deal with him, he had to have at least 5 stickers and he had to choose which ones, so he got 11 stickers and he had to bring home his damn stiches in a bottle... I have to say though, his lip looks like it was never hurt, however the scars on his cheek and under his chin will be there for life I fear... Shawn said he didn't cry when they took out the stiches. Sadly I didn't go, because I'm still having problems walking up and down our stairs. Justin though is doing wonderful and recovering very fast.

That must be tough. I know if anything happened to my little girl I would be hysterical. I am glad you guys are doing better.

Poor little guy, and poor you! I'm so sorry this happened, hon, and I hope you're feeling better soon. As for the little fellow, give him a big hug for me. He's a brave boy. :)

Emis and Shawn, sorry you all had to go through that but good that the little one is coming out the other side of it.

It seems a little odd to me that you asked for paypal donations for him though. That just seems sucky.

Abba Zabba, you my only friend.

[Nieninque]

I reckon he would appreciate time with his mum and dad more than a gameboy game...but what do I know :shrug:

He is four right?

I wouldn't be surprised if she was lying for attention.

Other people I spoke to about this said they thought it was a scam. The picture was pretty graphic and if that's Emis' little boy he must have been in a bad way.

I just dont get the paypal thing and the gameboy thing. Is it a good thing for a four year old to be stuck in a room with a gameboy?
What about dad not being able to spend time with him because he works nights?
And the boy needing something to do because he cant go to daycare?

Even if it isnt a scam, it's pretty lame to ask someone you dont know for money so you can entertain your own son.

[Edited on 27-8-04 by Nieninque]

[Emislity]

Shawn and I are not together anymore, just so you guys are aware. He's currently engaged to another and has a brand new baby boy that was just born about a month ago, whom we thought he was going to lose at birth. None of that of course is the point, but I wanted those of you to know that as I said before, he's had a pretty rough two months. He wasn't BEGGING OR ASKING for money, he was leaving the option open to people who wished to send. We do have a real social life besides GS, I only started this post for those people I couldn't get ahold of on AIM but that I knew would read the boards so they wouldn't be worried about us. For the rest of you, if you are offended by the comment of paypal, or the fact that our son wished to have a Gameboy because he's only 4. He's very smart for a 4 year old and I sure as hell would NEVER lock my son in a room with only his gameboy. Trust me he wants for nothing including the attention of his parents, whom he knows love him very much. I'm just saying, this post was just to let you guys know what happened and how we are doing as we progress and what will happen to the officer, not for you to come at us with insults. I wouldn't lie about something this serious and for you to think such ignorance is just sick. Anyone who would need to go to those measures for attention needs their head examined. I'm not saying I don't have issues, but I do have morals and hell sometimes Im even pretty smart. So those of you that feel you need to come down on me or Shawn because you hate us for some reason or another from a game, that's fine. Do me a favor though, don't ever insinuate we don't love our son nor would we do anything but die for him. I would much rather have those injuries than he, I'd rather he not been in the car, but I had just picked him up from daycare. Some things just can't be taken back, and well this is one of those that I wish could. I said many times in the hospital I wish I could turn time back just one hour, but I'm not a miracle worker. I've had to accept this and learn to live with what has happened. I'm not saying you have to, but you don't have to make it any worse for us than it already is.
DO yourself a favor and understand one thing. I nor Shawn want your pity or your sympathy, Hell we dont' want your money either, we just wanted to let you know what had happened in our lives. Perhaps a better place for these posts would have been a journal, but I didn't really know much about the boards having one until a few nights ago. Anyway, I hope you all have a wonderful day, and please for whatever reason you may hate me in game, please don't bring it to my RL, I obviously already have enough drama to worry about rather than to need to deal with your crap because YOU want attention and think it's cool to come down on me, because I went through this and you think I'd stoop so low as to use my son for attention. I'm sure you know who you are when I speak of such immaturity.

[AnticorRifling]

Did you both go to the same public school?

[HarmNone]

It would be very.....tacky....and that's a nice word to use for it, to claim a child was injured this way if it is not true. It is, however, equally....tacky....to suggest that it may not be true when you do NOT know. If you don't want to donate to the child because you don't believe the story, don't. If you want to donate, do. There's no reason to make accusations about that of which you KNOW absolutely nothing.

HarmNone hopes the child is well. That is all.

I'm not saying it's not true, although friends said straight off that it was.

My point was that, even if it is true, there is something just off about someone saying "My son was badly injured, send us some money if you want.."

Maybe it's just me but that sounds a bit opportunistic. Maybe it's a culture thing. It's not something people do here - although other people having a whip-round to help someone out when they are in trouble is fairly commonplace...kinda like the workplace thing...or even the boomsplatt thing. But not saying "We had something shit happen to us, send us money"

Of course, what happened to the little boy was awful and I am glad he is on the mend. As with Emis and hope she feels better soon.

and no we didn't share a school, but I do think your mother and i did, i always knew i had a lost child out there. i guess i owe you some child support. i guess you can come get it if you like.



[Edited on 8-27-2004 by zaestes]

So if I get hurt can I get a gameboy and some paypal kickback?

[zaestes]

your right Nieninque

but you also have to remember he did just get that card, and there are people that we know on these boards, for the ones we dont know your choice rather or not to read the post, two its taken off, sometimes i let what comes to my mind out to freely, and im sorry for that, it wasn't never to come out in a begging way. it is very selfish for someone to have something happen to them and for them to beg for money, but what i think and what i type sometimes is two dif things, i often get ahead of my thoughts, and mess parts that i was thinking. and so im sorry for that. None of you have nothing on me in the game, you try to use emis status in the game as a way of saying this may not be true, she never make the post, i made the post,

i use to play littlespell and kyotek, im pretty sure ive never upset any of you all, i dont lie, i dont cheat people. i treat everyone fair, and i ask that back of you guys. now this is my third time coming back to gemstone. now as zaestes of course. and once again im sorry if i offended anyone with the post. and i have removed it

[Caiylania]

All I have to say, is that why if you have so little time with your son, are you wasting it posting on these boards arguing with people you don't know or care about?

Log off, and be with him.

[Caiylania]

And I just want to say, I don't have a problem with either of you. Hell, Emis has helped me plenty of times. My thoughts go to any child that is hurt, and I hope he gets better quickly.

Cody if you get this message please contact me, so that I can at least tell you what the lawyer says. Have fun in the field. Miss you. :heart:

[Nieninque]

For the record I have no problem with Emis in game and even if I did, wouldnt have a go at her about it out of game, especially at a time like this.

Just felt that the paypal thing was wrong.
I shut up now

Hope things work out for you and the wee one Emis

[HarmNone]

As Zaestes has said, perhaps the "PayPal post" was not a good idea. Goodness knows, I have had enough bad ideas in my lifetime to qualify for some kind of award! I find it to my benefit, therefore, to refrain from throwing rocks until I'm dead sure what I'm aiming at. ;)

Like I said, whether to donate to this cause, or not, is a decision best left to each individual. It is not one, in my opinion, that the rest of us should be trying to discourage, or encourage. Decide for yourself, and do what you want to do.

Second off, i never asked for your damn money, I was just stating that if anyone sent him anything I would use it to get him a game. If my boy is asking for a game then that's what my boy gets. It was the idea of my co-workers to get him something while he was in recovery, a toy or something. However, with the amount of money that he got, I got him the damn gameboy because he asked me to.

Maybe he's just in the track of the rest of the stupid people that sit in front of the computer and pay for gemstone and play it. Just as I do. If you want to send him a freaking card, ask for the damn address, it's not something worry about either way.

Since you're not here, I was only telling you what he wants. (It will) be a while before i'm able to get it for him, (and I) don't know why people have to make big deal over a simple post.

And I'm sure there was a blinded curve that just ended 1/2 way through to a stoplight?

I didn't say it wasn't true, I said I wouldn't be surprised if that turned out to be the case. Big distinction there.
