I’m overwhelmed by the noise around me when I regain consciousness. I open my eyes slowly. It takes me a second to absorb my surroundings. The paramedic sitting next to me doesn’t notice that I’m awake. I’m on a stretcher, sitting up just enough to see the horrific scene. Fire trucks, police cars, two ambulances, and all the necessary personnel are what I see first. Then it’s the vehicular damage. The back of the minivan is smashed in. All the windows are now just shards of glass covering the road. Rain is still pelting the ground outside and on the ambulance. The paramedic sitting next to me speaks when she realizes I’m awake.
“Hey darling. Hang tight. We’re going to take you to the hospital now.”
Another paramedic closes the ambulance doors. I nod in response to the first one but the motion brings a wave of dizziness over me and I’m sucked back into blackness once more.
