I love seeing that your sense of humor is intact. I also have attempted to repair PTSD with cookies (and brownies) and wine; it can be part of the process. I also love the visual of your blended and complex family (made up of EIGHT?? parents) offering care, presence and vigil in the hospital. How amazing to have such a well-populated village to hold you and your boy. 💙

I'm so sorry this happened, but I'm glad you have a wonderful community supporting you. We'll be praying for continued healing, both physically and emotionally.
Having experienced a vehicular accident myself, I know this pain and trauma well. I also know well just how meaningful that love and support (and cookies!) are. My heart goes out to you all.
Sarah, what a horrific experience! And what a lot of beauty in the wake of it! I am glad you are both recovering. Take special care of your mental health. 💜
We are SO grateful for all the support you are getting and the medical system. A big reason we stay where we are is for proximity of UCSF. Continue to surround yourself with people who love you. Things could have been so much worse. We’re so glad you’re on the mend.
Thank you for sharing this, Sarah. I think about you often and continue to send love. Your community is larger than you know. And, BTW, that dress looks great ... and your beauty shines through, despite everything you're processing. 🙏❤️
Thank you for sharing your story. The worst and unexpected experiences help to shape our views — especially so important for a journalist. You already knew it, but now it’s reinforced what is important to you: your family and your community. Stay strong! -Richie
Oh, my goodness, I am so sorry this happened to you and your son, Sarah. But grateful that you are both recovering. Best wishes for a continued quick and complete recovery.
Wow, Sarah. I am glad both you and your son are okay. What happened to you both his awful, but you’ve found a way to share it by writing. Thank you for that

It’s your PTSD, no judgment ever. Glad to hear healing has begun.
How terrifying. I'm so sorry it happened, and so glad you and your son are still here to tell the story.
