If I'm rude today sorry
Deep apologies if I'm rude to anyone today I'm a little upset. On the way back from dropping grace off I saw a small boy about 5 or 6 run over, and it really didn't look good for him. It's dreadfully upset me, I can't imagine what his parents are going through.It's odd it happened in slow motion I was a car behind one that hit him, I saw him get out of his parents car, I saw his friends call to him and thought stay there don't run, found myself braking before he left the pavement but the man ahead didn't look and carried on along the road at a speed. I could see it happening by time I'd come to a stop he was still waving and had only put one foot on the road. By time I was screaming nooooooo he was in motion and moving across the road .........
Ambulance and police were fabulous I couldn't do that job and stay calm like they did.
The man was taken away very upset but how he didn't see the boy I can't work out, by the school I'm always hyper alert looking all ways in case anyone crosses or even falls off the pavement, I've seen it happen so many times.
One lady was saying it's because they did away with our crossing lady which we all protested about but I can't blame councils decision for this one, a crossing person wouldn't have had any effect I don't believe.
Anyway left me shaking and shocked and feeling a bit angry. So if I'm not nice to you any of you I apologise.

How awful.
I guess you will have given a statement to the Police?
You are obviously a very sensitive Lady Julie, but please try and not dwell on it.
I hope the child is alright though, but have you heard anything about that?
Best wishes Julie.
Take care.

What you tell us is even more awful than I thought.
Right now I am lost for words, but I will be watching out here for what you and others say as the day goes on.

Try not to dwell on it too much.
