Funny how it goes.  It all happened  quite slowly, as I recall.  She 
rounded the corner of the parking aisle and I thought she's going to hit 
me.  I recall just stepping safely past the path of her car and turning 
sideways and seeing her fender go safely by.  Then I was sitting 
sideways on the ground unable to get up.  Was it her mirror that knocked 
me down?  I may never know. I have no memory of what happened between A 
and B, but I had a swelling like half a grapefruit on the top of my 
head.  I had two CT scans 24 hrs apart and  then an MRI the morning of 
the third day.

  I hope you'll be all right with all your breaks and bumps.  The head 
is a mysterious and miraculous thing, but it doesn't take much to rattle 
the contents!.
