I just talked to RBYNC on the phone

[Khephra]

She wants me to tell you all that her mother has been printing up and taking to her all the kind words you've been posting for her.

The wedding is still on for today, so that's some good news. :-)

A little more about the accident:

she was trapped in the car for over 20 minutes (she was unconscious from the point of the accident) and they had to cut her out of the car. She said that there was only a few inches left of her side of the car, the rest having been smashed in.

She might have to go from the Hospital to rehabilitation. Right now she can't do much on her own.

She send us her love and I sent ours back to her.

I'm a little choked up, so I hope I remembered it all.

[Rabrrrrrr]

1. Thanks, Khephra!

It will be wedding that no one will ever forget, that much is certain. :-)

Glad to hear she's capable of speach, and the wedding will go on.

2. More hugs, prayers, good wishes, etc. to RBNYC.

:loveya: RBNYC, take care and good wishes on the marriage!

[ronnykmarshall]

3. We love her right back.

She'll make a pretty bride even in a hospital bed!

4. Guys, I have a question

6. Honeymoon in Rehab...

Gads! This is the first I've seen about all this. Just goes to show that any time lost from DU is INDEED something missed. I spotted this thread and then had to go read the other to get up to speed. Holy Cow, this is one wedding that nobody will forget any time soon...

Good to hear that she and the baby are ok and that the BIL is ok too. I'll send good thoughts their way, and I'll also offer a reminder to us all that bad things can happen to people we love, and it is important to TELL them they are loved--while you can.

Pax to you all and may your paths be brighter soon!

7. OMG Honeymoon in the rehab, good grief, what next

Sending kind thoughts for a speedy recovery

Come, we find ice cream/cake for the poor thing.

[Skittles]

9. WHAT? I.............................WHAT?

this is the first I've heard; what happened to my beloved RBNYC?

[blm]

13. JEEEZUS....I hadn't heard.....

Oh man, rbnyc....I am so sorrrrrrrrry. I am shocked and speechless, actually. O jeez....this hurts.

[DS1]

10. The flower project is complete

they will be delivered tomorrow.

If someone wants to start a new fundraiser, by all means, have at it. There's a vast resource of donations available here on DU, tap into it.

[trof]

11. I think she was just trying to figure a way

out of wearing the crappy wedding dress she hated.
But this IS a bit extreme.
Will she be wed in one of those cute little hospital gowns with her behind hanging out?

ALL THE BEST RBNYC!

Remember, bad beginnings make for good endings.
:toast:

[annagull]

14. Love and prayers to you, RBNYC

Hope everything will be ok, and I'm glad the wedding is still on! It will definitely be a heck of a story for the grandkids one day! :loveya:

[Cassandra]

15. Oh, dear!

Obviously we city girls don't belong in cars. Fortunately, the wedding will still have the most important elements; the bride, the groom, their families and love. :loveya:

[peacefreak]

16. It's funny the impact that we have on each other...

I was thinking this morning about her wedding & wishing them well. Then I came home & read the news. I hope they'll be OK.
Just know Rene, we all do care for you. Count me as another concerned friend. Love, Peasfreak

[Stephanie]

17. OMG, first I heard of this! Very sorry to hear it!

So glad you will be okay, Rene. What a world!

YOU are the most CHILL bride ever! Ever!

[tjdee]

18. HUGS to RBNYC .....

I too missed all of this, it must have been the most anxious (at the very least) time for her and her family. I can't imagine having to be cut out of a car.

Glad to hear the wedding's still on, very glad to hear the baby's okay...

Hoping for a speedy recovery and a quick return to 'normal'.

:-)

[Kat45]

19. I hadn't heard about this.

Wow! I'm glad she's ok. It's great that the wedding's still on.

Sending good thoughts and prayers your way, rbnyc.

[nini]

20. I hadn't heard either.... Thank God she is ok

I'll be sending good thoughts and strength to recover fully!

Get well soon rbnyc!!!

[GOPisEvil]

21. Wow!!!!!

:wow::scared:

Remind me to give that woman a BIGASSHUG when I see her next! I'm so glad she's OK.

Hey Kef...if you talk to Rene again, tell her I said hi! Say hi to Cliff too!

[Pale Blue Dot]

26. Tell them I said Hi too!

[redeye]

23. Sorry to hear about all that :-(

If you talk to her again, would you mind telling her that I, too - we all - wish her to heal and rehabilitate ASAP?

[JohnKleeb]

24. I hope she will be ok

That really sucks.

[Pale Blue Dot]

25. Oh my God, Rene

I just saw this for the first time. I hope everything is OK. I'll be thinking about you. Remember, you are the most chill bride ever!

Thinking of you,

Pat

[GCP]

27. What the hell happened?

First I've heard of an accident. RBNYC - have a great wedding and best wishes to you and yours for a long and happy life together.

Get well soon, :hi:
