As you know I had an unexpected appendix removal on Sat and my wife has a scheduled surgery yesterday. I was supposed to be the helping hand around here till she got better but now we are both laid up. Then this happens last night…

Man idk what God has in store for me or what he is trying to work out in my life rn. I got a call at like 6:30pm last night from my daughter that was supposed to be at her friends house in the neighborhood, only a few blocks away having dinner…I get a call that she took my wife’s Audi (without a license-just a permit, and not on our insurance policy) and she took it a few miles down the road to her friends house and they were driving around and she got t-boned and totaled my wife’s Audi. Wtf…seriously man. Thank god she is ok and her friend was ok and the other drivers were ok but both cars were totaled. Idk what god is trying to work out in my life right now but it’s really hard to trust this is his plan.

I’m not telling the wife until today. I will let my daughter tell her what happened after I get the wife home from the hospital. I can’t have her in the hospital all night worrying about our daughter, the car, the finances…etc.

Bro everything just feels like one large mess right now. I’m trying to keep me shit together and not lose it. I’m trying to show my daughter love, and compassion but another part of me wants to lose my shit. I haven’t bc I know it is not worth it and I know she already is hurting and feeling bad enough about the situation. But I will have her explain to her mom what she did so she can take that responsibility to the table. She should have a much healthier respect for driving on the road now I’d say but to my expense unfortunately.
 
Sorry, brother. When it rains it pours. Hopefully the sun comes out soon for you. Keep your head, the tide will turn.

Without aging myself, here’s my take since I have plenty of years exp….. when life feeds you that shit sammich, it is typically followed by something special. Here’s the rub….. that special is not always the following day, or even week. Patience is definitely tested in this.

Loosing your shit, no one could blame you, keeping your head for the betterment of the wife - wise and shows great restraint.

Chin up, know things always get better over time!
 
Thanks gents! Yeah I’ve been trying to remind my daughter that I love her and mistakes happen bc I know she is already beating herself up pretty hard. Freaking out wouldn’t help anyone rn. Just taking it a moment at a time. She will be breaking the news to the wife here in the next few hours after wife wakes up. She is resting rn as she should be.

I truly respect your approach with dealing with the incident your daughter found herself in. I'm sure she's beating herself up enough that compounding the situation with aggressive undertones by using disciplinary style language would do more harm than good. So much going on right now in the family that a soft loving disposition sounds like the healthy approach. Everything will work out in the end, it always seems to with the right attitude. Sending you and your family some good positive energy my brother 🙏 ❤️
 
Life will challenge us in was that will make us question our very existence! But the struggle is only going to build a better and stronger man each time!!! Keep fighting , keep being a good husband, a good father! And you’ll leave behind a better legacy with your family as a strong and good man who didn’t let life take him down no matter how hard it got!
