Yesterday I watched a young man nearly die in front of me, after he lost control of his motor bike just out side of Strathroy, John, nearly lost his life on the corner of Ameins and Mc Evoy.
A young man going a little too fast down the road. His bike landed about 40 feet off the road, and his body about 20 feet or so from the bike, he lost his helmet, both boots, and his jacket and socks where brown and green from the roll he took in the grass. When I pulled up to the accident his lifeless body lay in the grass. He was laying in a fetal position, with blood coming from his nose, ears and mouth. He struggled to even breathe, but I could do nothing to help him at the time. He was still breathing, not great but he was breathing. He lay unconcious, and dying, I prayed really hard the emergany call that came from my cell phone would result in the EMS arriving very soon!!! He did regain some conciousness but not enough to tell us what happened or what day it was/. For a minute I thought I was going to see a Very young man die in front of me. Thank God that he didn't. I was praying really hard, while telling "John" that he needed to hang on. When EMS got there, he was regaining more conciousness, and told them his name, but that was it. The pretty much scoooped him and RAN. They did not do any vitals, they just wanted to get to the Hospital ASAP. I have not heard whether or not John is still alive or how bad he is injured. But I am hoping that he survived the night. I just pray that I called EMS on time, and that it was enough time to save his life. But seeing someone fight to live that is only about 25 was horrible. I have this horrible picture and sound in my head, as I watched him struggle. I thank goodness that I had my Cell phone, and that I kept my cool when his cousin who arrived just after he had crashed, was panic ridin. I just kept talking to John, telling him that the ambulance was on it's way that he needed to hang on.
God PLease be with that Young man and strengthen him as he as much recovery to do.
Signing out.
