Default RIP 350Z. wreck.

Some of you may already know but I just want to tell the whole world of how good God is!

Last Thursday, my 21 year old son Nick was in an auto accident. While driving his car with a friend, he lost control and went through a utility pole with the drivers side door, knocking about a ten foot section from the middle of the pole. The passenger, Coulton Grubbs (yes, Connie & Ronnie's grandson) saw the impact about to happen and he pulled Nick toward him. Coulton was not hurt! Nick was taken to Angleton Danbury from where he was taken by life-flight to Memorial Hermann for surgery to repair a bleeding spleen and left kidney. Before he boarded the helicopter, we all stopped to pray together for him. When he arrived and settled in preparing for surgery it was discovered the bleeding had all stopped! They cancelled the surgery. He spent 2 days in the Shock Trauma ICU for monitoring and went to a room Saturday night. Still no bleeding! He actually was walking that night but in a lot of pain. He was released on Monday evening with some aches and pains but mainly a big smile and a grateful heart! He will need to take life easy for the next few weeks so he may continue to heal internally.

I've attached pictures of the car so everyone can see how great God was to me and my family!!! The State Trooper and Wrecker Driver both told me that in all their years they have never observed a car with this amount of damage having survivors! There was only about 10 inches left of the interior drivers side in the car. Without Coulton's quick actions, my son could have been killed. Talk about angels among us!

Thanks to those who knew for your concern and your prayers for I know that only God could have brought him through this! I hope everyone's Christmas can be as good as ours is with the miracle we've been given!

GOD IS SO GOOD!

woah, that is a crazy looking wreck. glad you came out okay.

Unfortunately this is my350z.com and there are alot of troll/nerds on here who will probably start to harrass you because you let a 21 year old adult drive a Nissan, who is less than perfect and wrecked it. Drive slow homie, everyone here is perfect and never had a wreck or speeding ticket.

^agreed but they can argue god created these people for this purpose so it was gods doing

maybe god can teach you how to drive responsibly instead of showing off to your friend in the passenger seat?

glad your okay and that you learned your lesson

FU$KING IGNORANCE!
Its a good think your alive, but to say that it was because of God is just fukced up. First look at all realistic possibilities of why you stayed alive, before you get in to the supernatural bullsh!t. And about the GOD IS GOOD thing, just go and Google some pics of accidents that didn't turn to have a positive outcome, with innocent kids brains on windshields, maybe then you won't be talking about GOD IS GOOD ********.
