TROUP CO GA: 3:23 PM CST. While traveling north on I 185 in TROUP Co Georgia we came up on a accident. The accident has just occurred on the southbound side.
It was a overturned large power company truck. There was a man trapped in the truck, pinned in the wreckage and diesel fuel leaking directly at the cab door.
It has been a while since I was one of the first to arrive on a accident minutes after it occurred.
The driver the truck was pinned with the cab crushed on top of him. I attempted to get a pulse but was apparent he was dead.
Ricky Beck was with me. We and others attempted checking the truck for a second person. It was impossible to check the cab for a second person because of it being crushed.
You know, it was probably not the smartest decision I made to lay in diesel fuel and crawl as much as possible feeling around checking for life or someone else in the vehicle. But when faced with any possibility of a chance to save someone, get a airway open, or whatever, you do what you have to do. And some of the conditions I will not describe.
But today is more of an example, in seconds your life can be over.
So with that said, I need to say more often to each one who loves me, likes me, dislikes me or hates me, I LOVE YOU!
Please say a prayer for a family. They are about to receive some bad news.
