It's a huge scare when the possibility of losing your loved one is so real. Last night I got a shock when I got a call from the ranger that D got hit by a car. Just 30 minutes ago I had just kissed him goodbye and told him to ride safe.
I felt my heart grip tight but I got changed and took deep breaths to remain calm. Nasty thoughts crept into my mind but I refused to entertain them.
I then got a text from D to say he's been in an accident and he's waiting for the ambulance. At that moment, the wave of relief which washed over me was overwhelming.
I drove at near breakneck speed to get to him at the crash site at Sentosa Cove, but the ambulance got there before I did so I followed them to the hospital. I just needed to see him.
I finally saw him when they carried him out of the ambulance and I didn't realise I was holding my breath. I saw no crazy amounts of blood and he gave me a reassuring wink, though I could tell he was in a lot of pain.
Being the experienced rider he is, his quick reflexes saved him but he is still a little shaken from it all. Nonetheless, D is strong and moving forward after escaping this, he hopes to advocate better safety between drivers and riders.
On my end, we often hear people tell us to treasure our loved ones, but it's not until something like that happens when the point hits home harder.
Take this time now to go tell your loved one how much they mean to you. Life is unpredictable as such.
