My uncle has been involved in a serious car accident whilst travelling somewhere in California. His sister was killed and we understand my uncle has suffered severe brain damage. He is in Bakersfield Medical Centre and the accident happened sometime on Thursday the 9th Feb.
This is all we know, has anyone seen any news reports or similar.
Any help or information would be gratefully received.
Thanks
Steven | |

We think it will take several weeks to bring back the body of my Uncle from the USA. It seems to be a very complicated process.
I remember leaving work on Thursday evening after a terrible week at work and thinking that things could not get any worse. As I drove through the carpark I ran over a carton of milk which very neatly sprayed itself over the the car. It was at that stage I knew it could not get any worse.

Honestly, I am not suprised at you not being able to find anything on the internet about the accident. My brother's Father-in-Law was killed in an accident in Iowa last year and I couldn't find anything about it online for several days.
