OOS MOGA

Wasn’t sure where to put this. While I very much need this right now, I’m not sure I’ll be able to ride this weekend.

My mom was hit by a car crossing the street yesterday and had been taken to Kings County hospital. I found out a few minutes after posting a photo of me stuck on route 95 in Maryland with an ironic (to the traffic situation) song on the radio. I came to find out later that the highway had been shut down due in an horrific accident and the subsequent medi-vac. We were on the way back from visiting one of my sons at school at the time.

W/out going into all the details, the resulting trauma coupled with her age and the medications she was on proved to be too much.

I got the call from my father that I had been racing against for hours on the fucking Gowanus Expressway.

My youngest knows but my twins at college do not. I’m holding off telling them and the rest of the family for a couple more hours until the ME and the police give me an idea when they might release the body so I can help make the arrangements.

I’m very fearful for my twins right now. They’re both having various issues at school lost in their own ways. The one with ADHD serious enough for medication (the other has it too but not enough to require medication) we had to enter into a short term crisis program over winter break and just started the counseling process back at school. His first real post intake session was set for Tuesday. But I may have to bring him back Tuesday for the funeral if the ME let’s the body go early enough (if at all) tomorrow. Neither does well with routine interruption and this certainly qualifies.

I’ll be off line for a few days.

Dan I'm so sorry your family has to go through this

Please let us know if there is anyway we can support you.
 
thanks everyone. The ME concluded his investigation and I was allowed to do the formal identification of the body and secure release to the funeral home. The police investigation is underway but I can’t speak about it yet.

Sorry to hear @Juggernaut, this is terrible news. If there's anything we can do, don't hesitate to ask.
