A Note From Carrie:
Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers. I was involved in a traumatic incident in NYC where a man, early 40s was trying to escape a hit and run and ran into multiple cars before hitting a food stand that my friend & I was walking near. It ended up knocking me unconscious and pended me under a bus. I was under it unaware of what was happening. I have a few broken bones, fractures, & chipped teeth but thanking God that I’m alive. Nine people were injured in his attempted escape from the hit & run, including 3 police officers. Police caught him shortly after and arrested him. Amidst the chaos of the New Year's incident, I'm holding onto an immense sense of gratitude for life itself. This setback hasn't deterred my belief that something remarkable is still being crafted by God. Despite the injuries sustained in the collision caused by a hit-and-run in NYC, I'm filled with hope and faith in the unfolding of a beautiful new chapter. Your thoughts and prayers are appreciated as I navigate this path toward recovery and new beginnings. Just finished surgery and healing. tag your teeth makeover places in Atlanta and Los Angeles please. Thank you to all the first responders, police, strangers, my friend Katherine, my mommy & her hubby, sis, friends who’s helped me. *P.S., my son was not there. He was safe in a warm hotel room with family.
