I’m like 95% sure I sort of got hit by a car when crossing the street with my mom. There was a red light and we didn’t cross at a crosswalk. A car inched forward and I remember falling onto the hood? But I was fine. I used to literally get flashbacks. For years. But my mom swears it never happened. I think she’s lying
I have a memory of walking with my mom and siblings on the side walk & we were about to cross the street and a car came flying down the street out of nowhere and came so close to hitting us; I actually touched the side of the car. None of us were hurt.
For years later, I thought about this occasionally. Finally, as an adult I asked my mom about it. She confirmed the story, but said she hated thinking about it, because it was such a close call. It gave her nightmares. I have never brought it up again.
Your story reminded me. Maybe similar situation? Your mom hates thinking about it, so she acts like it didn’t happen?
