Interesting how it played out from my perspective: Jim Bolt calls me on the way to a funeral saying he’s looking at a pretty bad motorcycle accident on the freeway as he precedes to describe the damage. While talking to Jim, Sandy calls me so I tell Jim she’s calling and I take the call. She proceeds to tell me Paul’s been in a motorcycle accident and we need to go to the hospital right away (not knowing his condition). I call Jim back to let him know that the accident he saw was Paul and to pray. He told me later that he immediately pulled off on the side of the freeway to pray.
So, for a moment, I’m thinking the worse (Jim’s description was not promising...) and am simply perplexed as to what to do or think. Then it occurs to me to simply call Paul and see what happens. I call and he answers! He tells me he’s in an ambulance being taken to Holy Cross, that he’s in lot’s of pain but basically all right, considering. Phew. I then call Sandy to let her know and off we went to the hospital.
Thumbs up!

We're praying for Paul and are grateful that he was not hurt more. Let us know if there's anything we can do to help!
Glad that Paul is OK. But let's get serious here...
How's the bike??!!
Bike probably totaled. We haven't seen it yet, but the way Jim was describing it, it's not looking good. He was just about to transition from the 14 freeway to north 5 and the traffic to south 5 was stopped. His lane was free and fast but someone decided to pull out of the stopped lane and BAM!!! No time to think or respond (much like your situation).
But, considering the possibilities, all is well.
