Hi everyone,

A year ago, in June of 2025, I totaled my car on 95 north near the Havre De Grace exit. I got cut off by a pickup truck and bounced across three lanes of traffic twice before hitting a jersey wall. 

When I got out of the car, there were several cars already pulled over and a bunch of amazing strangers who had already called 911 and helped me pull the other passenger out of the car. I am so grateful to all of them, but I am especially grateful to one woman in particular.

The second I was out of the car, she was helping me put my sweatshirt on so the shock wouldn't make me cold, reassuring me, and making sure I was okay. She let me hug her right there in the rain by the side of the road. What she did wasn't dramatic or flashy, but it meant absolutely everything to me as a then 19yo who had just seen her life flash before her eyes. 

Because of her, I'm currently on a premed track and training to be an EMT so I can be there for people in the same way she was there for me. I will never forget her kindness and I hope I can pay it forward to others.

I never got to thank her properly because after talking to the cops, she was gone. But I've thought about her almost every day since. Her name was Emily and she was Caucasian with glasses and lightish hair. I don't remember much else about her, but I'm hoping somebody can help me find her so I can thank her, or at least so she can know how grateful I am. 

The accident occurred on June 16th, 2025 around 6pm. I was driving a red Hyundai hatchback. 

If you know of anyone who lives in the area who fits this description and might have been there on that day, or if you have any other ideas for how I could find Emily, please let me know. Feel free to PM me if you want to keep it private.

Even if I can't find her, I hope this post will serve as a reminder that even the smallest act of kindness can change somebody's life and mean the world to them. 

Help me find the woman who was there for me on the worst day of my life
