We've been touched by most of this already in the 10 months we've lived here.<BR/><BR/>I think that the people who live here live with a stronger sense of safety though. More responsible and more aware. Well, maybe not. I like to think that I'm extra cautious anyhow. I hope Blaise will learn to be extra cautious too. We live right on a busy highway, so it will take a lot of watching over Blaise to ensure he doesn't go near it. Other babies have older siblings to look out for them and we see them all the time walking along the highway.<BR/><BR/>In regards to the accident... the driver did stop and we sent him to call an ambulance - which he didn't do. The school knows the man, he's an elderly gentleman and I'm sure he's feeling terrible about what happened even though it wasn't his fault for the most part.Zaakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00503666938286479556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5383518.post-1153548224306293322006-07-22T00:03:00.000-06:002006-07-22T00:03:00.000-06:00As a parent, I find I have become so sensitive to ...As a parent, I find I have become so sensitive to these things. When I hear about things like this I think what if it was my daughter or my son...and that hurts.<BR/><BR/>I hope Hugo will get better soon. What happened to the man who drove over his leg? If it was me, I know I would have a hard time trying to forgive myself.<BR/><BR/>Does this make you more concerned for Blaise's safety?much-adohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17391254054764830161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5383518.post-1153538759857088592006-07-21T21:25:00.000-06:002006-07-21T21:25:00.000-06:00Safety tip!!

Did the driver at least stop? <BR/><BR/>I think I broke my ankle once...at least the doctor thought so. But when I told him I walked in with it he said "you couldn't have broke it then" and just wrapped it. I just happened to have a high pain tolerance for some things. I never did get it checked out. Hurt for a loooong time though.<BR/><BR/>Hope both patients get well soon.Sirdarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05254017766529085032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5383518.post-1153461909478305572006-07-21T00:05:00.000-06:002006-07-21T00:05:00.000-06:00So how safe is it over there???So how safe is it over there???Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15825401927896414352noreply@blogger.com
