  I'm so glad you both are ok!!!  Beating yourself about it is not going to help anything.  Both my husband and myself are going though the same guilt right now.  He got into his accident one week.  Before that, I fell down the stairs and really hurt my ankle, a week after the car accident I end up in the hopital with my appendix, and 4 days after that I found out that my aunt passed away the very same day I went in to the hospital.  Sh** happens.  We all are ok for the most part.  The famous "what if" question wont make my aunt come back, or my husband car for that matter.  "It's over and done now"   It's what I tell him and try to believe myself.   The guilt of not calling my aunt knowing she worked less then a mile.  I feel I could have prevented her death.  I could have called her for help with either taking me to the hospital or picking the kids up from school.  She would have been with the kids or with me and would have not been working out and not have the heart attack that put an end to her life.   Not thinking even after the coroner told us that it was a accident waiting to happen.  If not that day, it would have happend anyway.  
 As far as my husband, the car died, but he walked away without a scratch.  He keeps replaying it in his head on what he could have done differently.   We've already gotten new car,,,,, (well it's new to us)  and the insureace moved very quickly.  And the accident is just a bad memory.  As it will be for you.  You are ok and that's all that matters!
 
 I'm sorry to have went on and on.  I just know what you are going though with the guilt.  I don't know about you but I just love this site.  I can get alot of my chest without having to pay $$$ for a shrink.  LOL  And you all make me feel better than and shirnk.
