Me and mum had a nasty car accident on the morning of April 23 at the junction at Tytherington about 10.15am. We were on the way to the vet with 2 of our guinea pigs when the accident happened.
I screamed and immediately got the guinea pigs out of the car as they were my main priority. As soon as it happened, I broke down in tears. The police were called straight away. As soon as we got home, I broke down in tears again.
I would like to say a massive thank you to everyone who came to help me and mum after the accident.
The amount of people that got out their cars to check we were OK we were so very grateful for. Lots of witnesses saw the accident happen and I would like to say a massive thank you to Joshua Bryan who immediately phoned the police. We were in total shock we didn't get the chance to thank him in person. Lots of people asked if we were ok and asked if the guinea pigs were ok too. Luckily, the guinea pigs were unharmed, but we are very shaken up by the accident and we do sadly have some cuts and bruises but other than that we are luckily OK.
