Actually Hanow, and i'm sorry to be going a bit off topic here. I've always wondered how come thay sell cars that go so much faster than the speed limit. And sell that as a "feature". Some drivers aren't as good at driving as they think they are and often over estimate their abilities behind the wheel. Or fail to take into consideration certain driving conditions like - road surface - weather - etc etc.

What a horrible experience for everyone involved and well done Graham, you did all you possibly could... also good thinking by Kat, for getting him to talk about it, too many men don't feel able to open up about how they're feeling, and bad stuff locked away does so much more harm....

Graham says a huge thank you for all your kind words!!!!!!!! It didn't seem to matter, that the police, family and friends all said he did a great job. I think it was seeing it here in print, that helped him!!! Agreed men are so very good at hiding their emotions, and I certainly didn't want him getting back in that lorry, with those thoughts rolling around in his head. So huge thanks from me too Now just waiting for some really good news about Alesha, because she truly is a miracle!

Most of us are lucky enough to go thru life without coming up against horrific events like this. Graham was a force for good in the midst of a terrible tragedy for that family I do hope you can help him to realise deep down what a wonderful thing it was that he was there to save the child. scylla x

Thank you Scylla, all the kind comments on this thread have helped him to get over the shock of what could have been. Hopefully we will have some news of little Alisha at the weekend, and will let you know of her progress

I have no idea how or why but the latest news I have about Alisha is that she is now recovering from cuts and bruises I do not use the word miracle lightly but she truly is a miracle child. I hope to meet her one day soon again

I do so hope Graham can put this awful experience into his personal Room 101 and that it will remain firmly locked away. Well done him for reacting so quickly and averting an even worse tragedy.
