OK, brains really do rattle...

On the way home from OPN tonight, we got rear-ended. Luckily it was a very minor incident. The car has a small hole in the bumper. More worrisome, perhaps, is the state of my head. I *felt* my brain rattle against my skull when the other guy hit us, and was dizzy for a few seconds. Ben drove home, because I have a headache. I am reasonably sure that this is something I can sleep off... I will go to work in the morning, knowing that I work 100 yards from the NEMC Emergency Department is a good thing.

I'm sorry. Hope everything is ok. Did you get the other person's information?

Meep! :( I'm glad you both are basically okay. It's probably not a bad idea to get checked out, though.

Ouch! Hope your head's OK...

Here's hoping you feel better in the morning

Eep. Hopefully Ben checked your pupils for consistent dilation... concussions aren't something one should try to sleep off!

Agreed. BTW this happened at that icky intersection right near your house. I was stopped waiting to turn left.

eek!

Hope you're okay! Get Ben to drive you to the emergency room if necessary.
