My great aunt has been very very sick. I had to leave Thursday and I have been staying at my mom and dads and going to help her out during the day. Last night around 5 pm I took her some dinner help her get ready for bed. I took care of her dog and little odd and ends around the house. It was almost 6 pm. I left and drove about a mile or so when out of no where this medium size buck jump across the road and sadly I hit him.

He limped to the side of the road while I stopped and put my blinkers on. I was bawling, I went over to him and told him I was so sorry I did not touch him anything but I stood with him crying. He looked at me sniffed and then just layed his head down and passed. I went back to my car and I have already call my dad. Two men my dad new came and were seeing if I needed help. I was more like check the deer he is hurting. One of the men when over and tap the deer with his foot and sadly the deer had passed on. I cried harder.

We finally got home my truck is badly damaged in the front and after a quick check up I have a bit of whip lash, a bruised knee and some pulled muscles and my jaw is a little sore from my it hitting the steering wheel.

I call the claims people some one will call me tomorrow. The deer will not be left to rot some friends of dad took it to be processed to help feed there family they are not well off so anything to help really does help.

I really hope the deer forgave me for hitting it. I cried all last night cause I hit it. I love animals and I cry when I see a dog or cat run over.

I am hurting and cant drive for a day or so till my soreness goes down.

Any trade or thing I have going on will be mailed out by my mom tomorrow.

This Is just one thing I did not need to happen I just hope my insurance will fix my truck and not total it.

I did not get my SSI so I have no income and my parents can only help me so much.

I am tiring to get enough funds to pay for doctors and such now after all this.

thank for listing.
 
I'm so sorry that happened to you and I hope you feel better soon. I process auto claims for one of the larger insurance companies and we get tons of deer hit claims every year. It was an accident, you certainly didn't intend for it to happen, and the deer didn't suffer long. Also, his body will be used for a good purpose, I'm sure his spirit will appreciate that. It may well be that the Universe had him jump in front of your car so his body could be used for that purpose.

It would be a good idea to ask your insurance company if you have coverage for your medical expenses, if you do, you won't have to worry about the doctor bill then.
 
aww, you didn't mean too hun, and I hope you'll get the help you need for medical and insurance finances too *hugz*
 
Oh no I'm glad you didn't where hurt badly! And I'm sure that the deer do not have a grudge against you because he passed away quickly and the body will be used for good and not let to be rotted beside the road.

I will send you lots of hugs <33 I'm sure everything will turn allright. Just go day by day and try to find something positive things on each day, it makes life look so much nicer when you do not focus too much on the bad stuff :).
 
I am so sorry to hear about this. Hang in there. I'm sure the deer does not hold it against you. It was an accident. I wish I could help you in some way!
 
Ya'll just being kind helps so much thank you all. 2014 is gone I was hoping 2015 would be better.
 
I hope he forgave you, Ology. After all, its nice he didn't leave to dpie on the road. Hugs
 
Thank for all the kind words everything. I am still banged up I look like a bruised piece of fruit on my leg shoulder and jaw. We cant fix my truck right now insurance say I have to come up with 1,000 deductible before they will pay the rest. My dad going to see if he can do some of the work like put the head lamp back in ect. These pain meds sure keep me sleepy as well.

I have been having horrible nightmares of hitting the deer and I have flashes during the day. Everyone says this is normal even so I hope it goes away soon so I can sleep better.
 
You have a heart of gold. I would have cried too. I can't imagine how painful that was and still is. Yes, I am certain that there is a spirit in animals where that deer felt your compassion and understood your heart. Not just the spoken word, but what you were feeling. Animals pick up on those things. It may have just been the one thing that put him at peace before he walked over the rainbow. I am sorry for your pain and the car being damaged too. I hope you get to feeling better. Forgive yourself, it wasn't your fault. It was a moment in life where something just happened. It was tragic, but you are not to blame.
 
How awful! I hit a squirrel once and I had to pull over and have a cry too. It was an accident, you aren't to blame. I could've been worse, you could have really hurt yourself and at least the deer didn't suffer long. At least he didn't hobble into the woods and hang on for a day or two. Try to think positively it's all you can do.
