I'm worth it

Tonight as I chatted on the phone with my friend Nina something she said gave me that ahh hahh moment.  I'm worth it.  In all the future dealings I will have with the insurance companies etc...I have to remember that I'm worth it.  You can't put a price on my life.  I need to focus on getting myself physically and emotionally back on track.  The Constable that came today also said I needed to focus on myself.  I told him that I kept wondering if there was something else I could have done to avoid the collision but he said no.  He said I had to stop wondering "what if" and focus on myself.  Do what I needed to do to get better.  It looks like I will never see the car.  They said if I needed to they could show me pictures but at this point in time it will remain in police custody.  They will attempt to take out anything that may have some sentimental value but most of it is pretty wrecked. 
Today Victim's Services gave me a call to check in.  They will follow up with me every few days to see how I'm feeling.  It's pretty amazing actually. 
Today I asked the Constable if I might be able to thank the man who held my hand.  She said she would look into it and maybe I would be able to do that.  I hope that I could at least send him a note and tell him how much it meant to me to have some human contact in those minutes before the first responders arrived.  He was my link to life.
