Summary:
The 65-year-old Ollie Hill lost control of his car last thursday, and his pick-up truck drove straight into another trailer. His two-year-old grandchild received several injuries, but unlike his grandfather he survived the accident. The old man knew he wouldn't survive this and called his wife, to let her know what was happening. The ironic part of this story is the fact that Hill had already written a letter describing what he would want to happen with his body when he would die. This letter was written because of an operation he was scheduled to have in a few days, just thinkinbg about the chance that he might not come out of this surgery.
Opinion:
I think this is a very sad story, but it also has a beautiful touch to it. The fact that this man called his wife to let her know what happend and to say goodbye, is a beautiful thing to me. It shows of the love of this man for his wife, and that is why the story had drawn my attention. But it is always very sad to hear of someone dying too young, and I can't imagine what trauma's the little boy will have because of this accident.

I believe that people most of the time know or feel they are going to die beforehand. He felt this long before it was going to happen, which was why he was preparing his wife and his family for it. Even though we might not have much insight in the spiritual connection that we have with ourselves, most feel that there is more and somehow receive information that we cannot place, yet helps us to cope with things, like he could. Indeed a touching story.
