I asked Loretta Speedling what actually happened and this was her reply.

They had 23 inches of snow the day before the accident. They live on the same street as Christy. Anyway, they were driving down their street and slid the car flipped over three times, Megan was thrown from the car and it landed on top of her, Poor Jimmy and Elise, her 5yr. old, thought she was dead. All of the neighbors ran out of their houses, including Christy, and all of the guys picked the car up off of Megan, she punctured a lung. They were so lucky for having the snow storm, as it cushioned her and protected her body. She and the baby were airlifted to DC and both spent the night in hospital, Elise at Childrens, and Megan at Washington Hospita Center. It was truly a miracle!!! They are bruised and banged up, but no broken bones and thank God noone got killed!!!

Although they all responded soon enough to my threat, nobody has updated this blog yet. To be fair, this sort of thing is easier for me to do so I'll give a general update on the family. I won't post those nasty pictures just yet, because I'm sure there are some of me floating around and I don't want to start a war. You may remember there are 6 kids, in order of age: Mark, Colleen, Paul, David, Kathleen & Kevin. Hearing it listed like that reminds me of being called for dinner. :) Mom and Dad (Maureen and Al) are both in good health and living in that big house you remember in Ancaster. The house and property itself would look very different to many of you as my Dad's projects have really transformed the place. There are no more big willow trees (and no more treehouse!) :( ...
