Aly I can certainly relate to the emotional toll it takes when you witness such a thing. I haven't been involved in something quite that traumatic like that, with an injured person, but I witnessed a dog get hit and killed on the highway one day when I was driving to work many years ago. I was on the other side and pulled over, though the person who hit the dog did not . The dog dragged himself to the shoulder on the other side and collapsed. I couldn't get across because traffic was so heavy, but finally someone on the other side pulled over and pulled the dog's body off of the shoulder of the highway and spoke with someone who came down from a house near the highway. It was obvious then that the dog had died

I just sat pulled over on the shoulder, crying and shaking, was late to work as well, and I had a very difficult time getting over it. The dog got hit RIGHT next me, and all day I saw the flash of terror in his eyes and the horrible thump and yelp as he was hit in my mind, like flashbacks. To this day when I think of it, it hurts. I don't think there is any quick fix to get over it. You are a very sensitive person and things like this affect you deeply. In a way, you are probably going through some of the stages of grief from the experience, and likely it will just take some time. Do try to keep your mind occupied as best you can, and I think coming here and sharing your feelings is good too.

{{HUGS}} to you, you are a wonderful person Aly with a beautiful heart and soul.
