It’s so sad, because you made the right decisions at every step of the way… it would have been necessary to have the tractor trailer driver with you, so starting back towards him was smart, and then the woman saw that one man cared, and was able to whisper to you, and that was probably the one kindness and caring she had felt for who knows how long... It’s sad that someone can make all the right decisions, and yet forces and other people can be beyond one’s control at crucial moments. So searing, heart filled, tragic. Yet one men cared.♥️
Timing. You dropped under that bridge at that time on that night to experience that cruelty. Maybe wisdom learned that impacted how you treat others even today. Just thinking...
Some things just can't be unseen or forgotten even after so many years. This kind of horror, usually drug or alcohol fueled, happens every day but most of us never witness it like you did. It's hard to imagine what drives people to be so brutal.
OMG! That was raw. May we never have to face tests of this sort. You are wise to take away the lesson you did; but also I hope you're able to see how you could only have done so much in the short span, the situation (evidence of such violence will make anyone take stock before jumping in - this happens even before our cognitive brain kicks in) and the unexpected nature of the event...
What a horror. A memory that will never leave you. I hope that with the telling of the story your nightmares will decrease. The woman's nightmare surely didn't.

What a haunting story!
Unfortunately nonfiction is right. That poor woman!
And you’re still healing from that experience….
I feel for you Mark. Things that pass before us; it's alot. May be all we can offer is a prayer if our part is limited.
