Three is that we disabled her air bag when she started to show.  At the time, I didn't feel right doing that, but now I'm glad I did.  If it had deployed, it would have nailed the baby and probably would've had a different outcome.
Good call on the air bag. :salute

Ask your wife what she thinks of naming the baby, "Rufus" ...

Disregard.  Your wife might not be in the condition for another shock.

Seriously, great to read the good news.

Just returned here after a few days away.  Wow.  I'm floored.  The show of support from this community is awesome.  I don't even know what to say.

I do have good news all around to report.  The baby is doing fine and under control.  Momma is beat up & sore but all in all ok.  She didn't break any bones, but did smack her head on the driver's side window, plus other bumps, bruises & cuts.  That's just fine with both of us.  She (they) get to come home tomorrow or the day after.  Home at last.

The reasons they faired well was because one, although she rolled the van twice, it was more of a double barrel roll while sliding forward & not one of those side over side type of rolls.  Two is that she always wears her seatbelt.  Three is that we disabled her air bag when she started to show.  At the time, I didn't feel right doing that, but now I'm glad I did.  If it had deployed, it would have nailed the baby and probably would've had a different outcome.

So again, I want to thank each & every one of you for your support.  When I show her this thread, she will be blown away (and probably embarrassed :) ).  You guys really made my day reading this.  Thank you all so much.  I'm truly touched that my family & myself have such a great group of virtual friends.  You guys are the best!





YES!!!!!!

That made my ENTIRE WEEK.. I'm happy for yall man..

She is now off work until after the baby is born & has to take it real easy and has to go in for checkups twice a week til the delivery.  I just can't wait to get em home & safe. 

OK, OK, fun's over folks!  Let's get back on the bus.

...um...Ranger...let's put our nose back to the map grindstone, shall we?  You've had your little vacation, time to get back to work.

Before I go to sleep, I just wanted to thank all of you one more time for the tremendous support I received here.  It was a very trying week and something I will never wish on anyone.  To all those that PM'd me, I'll be replying to each of you, and I thank you.  Someday soon in the future, I will resurrect this thread with pictures of the baby your prayers helped to save.  Thank you my buds.  I'll never forget this.
