Those injuries are severe for a woman her age (the wife).
It will be a long recovery.

I wouldn’t wish this kind of trouble on my worst enemy. Rear-ended by a semi on I-95. It’s a very dangerous road.
God be with them all and may the doctors and nurses give them the best of American healthcare (pre-Obamacare style.)

Right now they are probably both heavily sedated and don’t know or care if Harry is there or not.

Reid’s wife and daughter sent to hospital after car accident
Updated 6:15 p.m.
By Josh White and Shailagh Murray
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s wife and daughter were in a serious car accident Thursday afternoon on Interstate 95 in Fairfax County, and police said they are being treated at an area hospital for non-life threatening injuries.

Police said the Reids’ van was rear-ended and crushed by a fully loaded tractor-trailer while driving in heavy traffic.

Virginia State Police spokeswoman Corinne Geller said Landra G. Reid, 69, and Lana Reid-Barringer, 48, of McLean, were driving northbound on I-95 at about 1:10 p.m. in a 2005 Honda Odyssey van in stop-and-go traffic when Reid-Barringer began to stop for traffic ahead of her. A tractor-trailer loaded with rolls of plastic behind her did not stop and pushed the van into another car.

That car in turn hit a third car.

Geller said the van was crushed on both ends.

No doubt. But Harry knows. And he's chosen his priorities. Which one of us would--could!--leave our wife and daughter at a time like that? They are not ferrets you drop off at the vet.
