Ever wondered how a simple camping trip could turn your life upside down? Join me as I recount the whirlwind of events that started with ballroom dancing at 38 and led to a fateful adventure near the Murray River. You'll hear about my relationship with a young footballer, the discomforts of camping, and the resulting major accident that changed everything. The journey is filled with humor, mishaps, and a few life lessons along the way.
The thrill of water skiing turned into a chaotic ride of unexpected twists and turns. Imagine being flung from a donut ride, crashing into the water, and finding an eerie peace while submerged. Through these near-catastrophic experiences, I reflect on life's fleeting moments and the recent loss of my sister. The hilarity of dealing with IBS from river water and the fear of colliding with another boat add layers to this rollercoaster of emotions.
When a New Year's Eve boat accident leads to severe injuries and a long recovery, the story takes a serious turn. Facing a seven and a half hour surgery, ICU hallucinations, and family challenges, we explore the raw and gritty aftermath of a life-altering event. The emotional strain peaks with the devastating news of my daughter's broken arms and a poignant moment of trying to reach out to my recently deceased sister.

Hey Mamas, welcome to the Raising Rich Podcast with your favourite mother-daughter duo, Jo and Lane. Join us as we take you on the rollercoaster ride that has been my mum's life with money.
Speaker 2:
Yes, I'll be opening up about the taboo topic of money from bankruptcy to a six-figure income and all the heartache in between. So if you're a single mama out there trying to figure it all out, then this podcast is for you. Join us for all the ups and all the downs on Raising Rich.
Speaker 1:
Hello and welcome to the accident episode.
Speaker 2:
Yes, the accident episode. There's probably not a lot about money and finances in this particular episode. However, it does allude to a very large episode relating to money a little bit further down the track. We want to stay in chronological order in terms of what's happening in my life, and the accident was a very significant time in in my life?
Speaker 1:
absolutely it's. I honestly don't know how you survived this, this accident which we're about to get into. You know, just picking up from from the last episode, you're enjoying going to uni. You're enjoying your jobs. At this stage, you've just had a lovely gift given to you by your dad. Yeah, what else is going on well?
Speaker 2:
I am. I'm 38, I am feeling very sexy, very super hot. I you know, I've got. I've got the hair extensions going, the fake tan, the white teeth, the boobies. I'm rocking it. I'm thinking I am hot and loving life, doing ballroom dancing, meeting fabulous people, becoming a ballroom dance teacher, all those sorts of things. And I go to the races one day. If you don't know, melbournebourne, we have a great spring racing carnival where we get very dressed up which I do not support horse racing, but continue mum I wasn't there for the horse racing.
Speaker 2:
I was there for the drinking and probably the good looking men, I'm assuming very hot looking men with their fabulous shoes, because you know I always look at a man's shoes. Love a good shoe yes, make sure that they've got the nice shoes. I believe that I can tell a lot about a man by their shoes anyway, all right, carrie brunchell okay.
Speaker 2:
Well, that's okay, I'm happy to be called carrie brunchell, that's for sure, or melda marcos, whichever you know, 163 pair of shoes, um so, anyway, I'm at the races and I meet this very, very handsome tall footballer.
Speaker 1:
He actually I was 38 and he was 23 and I recalled this very clearly because there was a smaller age difference between he and I than there was between you and him.
Speaker 2:
But look, let's be real, I didn't look. 39.
Speaker 1:
No, you didn't. So you know. I'm sure that there are women listening to this going go you nothing wrong with that?
Speaker 2:
No, I didn't look 39. However, you know I dated this guy for maybe a year and a half. Perhaps it was time to get out when I was going to way too many 21sts.
Speaker 1:
Oh my God 38 going to a 21st, that you're not related to oh my goodness, and the girls would come up and go.
Speaker 2:
Oh my God, you're Mr R's girlfriend. We're going to call him Mr R, you're his girlfriend. Oh my god, you look so good for your age.
Speaker 1:
And that's exactly how they talk.
Speaker 2:
Oh gosh it nearly killed my brain just to hear that, oh, my god, you look so good. Yeah, I do, um, yeah, but after going to many, many 21sts, I thought, yeah, it's probably time to call it quits and and move on. However, this um, very handsome strapping footballer introduced me to camping, camping, camping, and to this very day, I still don't go camping because it's not my thing.
Speaker 1:
Well, doesn't it just highlight what you're willing to do for a man that?
Speaker 2:
you like though I can't no oh my goodness. So we decide to go camping one weekend with another couple that I had met. They were friends of his another footballer and his wife. They had a boat and we pack up Mr R's four-wheel drive and he's got all the camping gear because he is a regular camper. The closest thing I have to camping is a bikini. That's all I pack. I packed a bikini because I knew we were going to be camping on the river.
Speaker 2:
Uh, we were camping near the murray, which is on the border of victoria and new south wales in the middle of bumfuck nowhere absolutely in the middle of bumfuck nowhere we needed the four-wheel drive and I'll never forget thinking I need a chiropractor after this, because the roughness of the road in like was just too much for me and we were seriously in a spot where there were no toilets. It was like if you whip your pants down and a snake will bite you on the bum Like that's it, not my cup of tea.
Speaker 1:
There has to be toilets at a minimum, and I'm not talking like a drop toilet, I'm talking like an actual, functioning toilet.
Speaker 2:
No. Please this was take a stick with you and you know part the ground as you're walking before you take your knickers down and go for a squat Like it was. Yeah, it's not, definitely not my cup of tea.
Speaker 1:
I think that we should get that printed on a t-shirt take your knickers down and pop a squat yeah, no, thank you.
Speaker 2:
So yeah, that was. Uh, we were camping this one particular weekend and the couple that we'd gone with had bought their boat, as I said, and because we couldn't get the boat to the actual camping area, don't ask me what they did with it, but they had to leave it somewhere. We kind of went for a bit of a walk at one stage down the Murray and, surprisingly, there was another camping area that looked a little bit more reasonable than where we were.
Speaker 2:
There was a sandbank, at least, and there was a group of people and, surprisingly, there was somebody there that I went to school with hi, how you going? You know, we have a bit of a chat, la la la, and we decide that we're going to catch up again in the next day or two, which we do. The funny thing was I had spent the day before learning to water ski and drank half the murray water. Oh yeah nasty.
Speaker 1:
It was very nasty. It's not a river that I would recommend being like clean water.
Speaker 2:
No, it's not and you know when you're learning to water ski. I can just imagine my mouth wide open trying to learn. And then you hit the water like concrete and your mouth's open and, like all these lovely germs, go in your gullet.
Speaker 1:
And because I've been drinking, can you just imagine like a cartoon of just like you go being the water submerged and then just like rising to the top, and so I was not feeling the best.
Speaker 2:
this particular day I drank too much Murray water, had been drinking too much alcohol, and it was the first time that I started to notice that I have IBS.
Speaker 1:
When you're camping, it is not sexy not to a 23 year old bloke either. Sorry, my missus is about to shoot herself.
Speaker 2:
I don't think I shared that with him. I think I kept that little, that little nugget.
Speaker 1:
I kept that little nugget in my own pants.
Speaker 2:
I don't know if they weren't nuggets, but that was that's disgusting sorry I well we got off topic. Well we got off top. But I'm just trying to explain to people how I was I think they got the visual. I think they got it so I'm not feeling well, oh really, okay, no shit there are too many poo puns.
Speaker 2:
There are too many poo puns for one episode, all right, so I'm sitting on the bank and I'm just watching everybody have a great time on this biscuit. That's what we call a like a like a donut. A donut oh yeah, donut to biscuit, it's always food related.
Speaker 1:
That's why we love it. We have a good donut and a biscuit.
Speaker 2:
And they're trying to talk me into going on this donut and I'm thinking, nah, look, I'm. I'm really not feeling terrific. I give in and I think, oh, you know, I could go for a little cruise, I'll just sit on the back and here we go. So I get talked into going on this donut and everything is fine. They put a little 13-year-old spotter, which I later find out is illegal. So a spotter is the person who sits on the back of the boat and watches the person oh, okay yep, it's same as water skiing, etc.
Speaker 2:
You have a driver and then you've got to have someone watching the person who's skiing or on the biscuit or the donut anyway. So I'm sitting on the back of the donut, we're just cruising, and I'm thinking, okay, no worries. Uh, the driver decides to speed up and I signal to them to slow down because I'm I'm not enjoying it at this stage.
Speaker 2:
At this particular time in victoria, we were having a drought, and so the murray water was extremely low, yeah, and in fact so low that a lot of the boats were hitting tree stumps and what have you, and at that point they decided to speed up and I was thinking well, this isn't going to work because the water is so low. I can see a lot of the tree starts sticking out, and this is I'm not comfortable you know when you start to think, oh, this is not good.
Speaker 2:
So I'm sort of signaling to say slow down and nothing's happening. They decide to go faster. They whip me, oh gosh so a whip is when you know, if you're being towed, they go really fast. They fling you around a corner, yeah, and the effect is you get whipped out even faster.
Speaker 2:
And the silly thing was they did it when they were going around a corner okay, yeah so I'm now hanging on for dear life on this donut hurtling if that's the best word I can describe hurtling out past my boat, around to the side of the boat, and I see another boat coming the other way and in that moment all I could think about was shit, how, how do I get out of this?
Speaker 2:
I let go of the donut and fly, like I really didn't know what to do. I either let go or I hang on. And I thought, well, I have to hang on. This is, this is the safest that I can do. I'm on a floating device. I'm going to hang on. I stick my legs out, thinking, well, can I try and push the boat away?
Speaker 1:
Like hmm, yeah babes, yeah babes.
Speaker 2:
I'm flying into it, it's flying into me, I'm just what going to tap it, tap it and off it goes. Give it a little little kick, little nudge, nudge. And so I've stuck my legs out and they've seen me coming, thank goodness, and I see them try to veer off but it's too late. Yeah, my leg clips the boat and next thing I remember I am in the air. I'm flinging through the air, but my arm is still stuck in the handle of the donut.
Speaker 2:
And the donut because the boat is. How do I explain it? The rope is going slack tight, slack tight yeah tight and, as it's doing that, it's pulling my arm yeah bang, bang, bang, crunch, crunch crunch, crunch and I end up in the water and I'm I'm sinking to the bottom and, like I said, it's not very deep. So, as I'm sinking to the bottom, it feels like everything is in slow motion and it's really peaceful under the water, like really incredibly peaceful.
Speaker 2:
It's like when you do watch people in movies drowning and it's that slow motion and your hair is floating and you know air bubbles up. And my immediate thought was well, this is okay if I die, because I'm going to be with my sister yeah because she had, as I said in the previous episode, she passed, and it was only six weeks prior. In that moment I'm thinking well, this is okay, how bizarre yeah, how bizarre.
Speaker 2:
And then pain. Pain takes over and my leg, my left leg, is in an unusual position, like it's back to front. I'm I'm remember thinking what, what is going on there? And so I go to, I'm trying to hold on to my leg, but then my left arm is floating away and I'm thinking well, hang on a minute, my arm's not meant to be where that is. So with my right hand I grab my left arm and I drag it in, but then my leg starts going again and I'm in this conundrum. What on earth do I do? But at that point in time I feel like my arm is just in more excruciating pain and I float to the top of the river yeah, top of the water and thankfully I've got a life jacket on. The first thing that I do is put my arm up, my right arm, because this is the one that's working yeah, put it up to signal I'm in the water, I'm in trouble I need help my.
Speaker 2:
I knew there was other boats in the water so I've got my arm up and then I have to grab my arm again because it's again floating down the river. From that moment to the next point of being on the bank, I don't remember.
Speaker 1:
Yeah, so this is just what other people have really kind of told you.
Speaker 2:
Yes, absolutely so they. After the incident, they told me that I was screaming.
Speaker 1:
My head off.
Speaker 2:
I find that interesting because I'm not one to scream yeah, I, I'm very proud of the fact that I've had three children and birth naturally, but I've been able to meditate through the birth and I know that that's a big thing now, you know that they talk about the meditation and the active birthing process, but for some reason I just I automatically did that with the three of you and I'm able to talk my body through the pain.
Speaker 2:
I remember being on the shore thinking, okay, meditate, breathe, meditate. You're not in pain, your body will repair itself, breathe, breathe. But obviously, between the water and getting to the shore I'm not thinking about that. I do remember several people in the water helping me yeah obviously they're carrying arms and legs that are going this way and that way yeah and I'm on the the side of the, the embankment, several people are trying to call for an ambulance. Of course there's no reception no reception. Somebody has like a carry um?
Speaker 1:
a what like a carry uh like thinking satellite phone like a, yeah, like one of those, oh, yes, and but like emergency, yes, like it looks like a battery pack, almost yeah so they're trying to call an ambulance and and what have you?
Speaker 2:
but because we're in four-wheel drive country, they can't get an ambulance to me. So they say we have to get out onto the main road. Can you imagine trying to get me into a four-wheel drive?
Speaker 1:
Yeah, with the manky-ass body.
Speaker 2:
Manky-ass body, chest pain, incredible chest pain, but what can you do? You can't get anybody out to help you. You've got to get me into a four-wheel drive.
Speaker 1:
Yeah.
Speaker 2:
So we're in the four-wheel drive Bush bashing to the hospital. Bush bashing to get onto a main road. Yeah, and that's where my skills of meditation honestly came into effect, because that was extremely painful we get out onto the main road, we don't worry about calling an ambulance, because we may as well just keep driving yeah, we keep driving to the local tea shanty hospital because, come, bumfuck you.
Speaker 2:
Yeah, we're out in the middle of whoop whoop. We get to the hospital and bless the nurse. She's like sorry, but the ambulances are on strike. No, the best thing that we can do is send you to the next hospital. Like Like ambos are allowed to be on strike, like, absolutely Because of their pain, their conditions, wholeheartedly, no drama, don't have an issue with that, unless you've got a fucked leg and a fucked arm and a cracked sternum.
Speaker 1:
Unless it's you yeah.
Speaker 2:
So we get to the next hospital and they are like okay, you're a bit mangled, you need to get in a helicopter. No, a plane, a light plane. We are going to fly you out of here and send you to the Alfred. So the Alfred is the major trauma center in Melbourne. Yeah, but at that time I was absolutely petrified of flying.
Speaker 1:
Which I find so strange because you, just you travel a lot now.
Speaker 2:
But yeah, yeah, I think just back then I didn't travel much and, um you know, being a broke ass, single mum you never really did, used to drive to rosebud, which is you know hour and a half down the road.
Speaker 2:
That was my holiday. But at that time, yeah, I was really scared of flying and I apparently carried on and said I was not going to get in a plane. So they said, well, we're going to have to put you in an ambulance and transport you straight away. This was new year's eve eve. Oh, so december 30th, yeah, okay, I had to advise my ex-husband that I was not going to be home for new year's eve, because that was the deal. I, because it was my turn to have the children on New Year's Eve no drama.
Speaker 2:
I had to call him and let him know that I was not going to make it. I let him know that I had been in an accident and that I wasn't going to be home for New Year's Eve. I'm really sorry. And his response was new year's eve. I'm really sorry, and his response was well, I spent 200 on a ticket for a new year's eve party, so I'm just gonna fucking drop the kids at your house. So you'd better fucking be home. And it was on speaker, because obviously the nurse had dialed the phone number for me. Yeah, she has gone. Are you fucking serious, mate?
Speaker 1:
Good on her.
Speaker 2:
She went off her chops at him, and then she sent him a photo of what I looked like oh wow, and he's rang back straight away. Oh my God. Oh my God, I'm so sorry, like yeah good on you, mate yeah.
Speaker 2:
Thanks mate. Yeah, thanks, mate. You're a legend. So he's like oh, I'm so sorry, and I said do not tell the kids. Do not tell the kids, I don't want them to know, I'll just let you know when I'm better, so you're not to say anything. So, yeah, good on you. I hope you enjoyed your $200 fucking tickets, mate.
Speaker 1:
Did he go? Do you know what I mean? Oh, fuck.
Speaker 2:
You know what. Couldn't have given a shit if he went? That's how much I cared. So, anyway, get transported to the Alfred Hospital and they obviously look at me and they say what do you do for a living?
Speaker 1:
And I said well, you know.
Speaker 2:
I'm going to be a school teacher, but I currently teach ballroom dancing and the doctor says oh, so you need your arm. Uh, yes, please, that would be nice. Yeah, just, you know, sew it back on. So anyway, this is new year's eve by now, because obviously I get transported to the hospital. They have to call in a specialist. They were worried because of my sternum, but that was all fine, it was just cracked. My knee was fine, it was just that the patella had gone sideways. Patella is the, the knee joint. They call in the specialist and it is a seven and a half hour operation to pull out. Remember how I said to you in the whip, the rope was going slack tight, slack tight, slack tight.
Speaker 1:
And your arm was caught in it.
Speaker 2:
That was my arm breaking constantly. Break, break, break, break break. So apparently there was a lot of debris and germs from the water and also my bone had splintered into many, many, many, many, many pieces. They had to spend that seven and a half hours picking out all the splintered bone. It's now my elbow has a hook with some wiring in there to make the elbow sort of move, but, as you're aware, like there's only about 45 degree of usage, so I've significantly lost a lot of use of my, of my arm and you can't actually make it go straight at all and I can't reach things.
Speaker 2:
Yeah, up in a cupboard.
Speaker 1:
You can't. You can't use your arm as an excuse, because you've never been able to reach things in a cupboard.
Speaker 2:
Just because you're tall, no, so I can't obviously reach things in a cupboard. So it's a bit of a joke in the family now it's called the Nemo fin. It is the Nemo fin, but the best thing is it's the left arm. So when I'm ballroom dancing you know that works out perfectly fine. So that's a bit of a win. That was my experience of my new year's eve of that accident. So I was in hospital for around 10 days. The first seven days I don't really remember.
Speaker 2:
There was a lot of drugs, because I was in the icu for that amount of time, had a lot of hallucinations could have sworn that there were people there that I was talking to, that I'd agreed that I was going home and they were like no, babe, it's a public holiday. Uh, it's new year's day. There's no one that's coming in. Apparently, on about the 3rd of January, my ex-husband brought the kids in to see me.
Speaker 2:
Don't remember a thing about that, even though I'd said to him don't tell the kids but, it got back to them through cousins because obviously the husband had told the sister-in-law and, you know, got back to them, um, so I guess they wanted to see and make sure I was okay. I get home it's mid-january by now and I get a phone call. It's a hospital. Would you like the good news or the bad news? And I'm thinking what on earth's going on, because at this point in time my ex-husband obviously got the two younger children and the youngest one has fallen off the monkey bars and she is fine, but she's not only broken one arm, she's's broken two. Yes, she has Bless her little cotton socks. I have to get a taxi to the hospital because I can't drive. No, I've got a bunged up leg, bunged up head yeah, there was a few cuts and bruises there and a bunged up arm Because wasn't your hair caught in like the propeller of the boat as well?
Speaker 2:
Who knows, I ended up with yeah. I was a bit mangled, anyway. So I get to the hospital I'm in a wheelchair and I come in and admin staff they're like oh, who are you? You know which doctor are you?
Speaker 1:
here to see.
Speaker 2:
Like none of them. No, I'm here to see my daughter. So go in, see little dolly girl, and she's, uh, she's got plaster up to her shoulders, on both her arms. And they look at me and say, well, you, who are you? And I said, well, I'm her mom. And so from there they had to decide you know that they're going to take her back into surgery, remove some of the plaster cast on at least one arm so that she can at least feed herself or toilet herself. So of course I pick up the phone and I dial my sister's number, because she is the first person I'm going to call when anything ever happens. And I hear the voicemail and it hits me because she had passed six weeks earlier and I had to get myself out of that hospital room as quickly as possible because I was sobbing and you don't realize how you can desperately miss somebody until you experience that moment. So that was just phenomenal. Anyway, little Miss Dolly girl comes home and we are both incapacitated.
Speaker 1:
Yeah you are. I remember just getting a call at dad's house and it was like you need to get home quick, smart, immediately, I need some help. And I get back there and you know you're obviously bed bound pretty much and then, as as you mentioned, my sister is up to her neck in plaster and the two of you needing to go to the toilet oh, my god, god that was an experience.
Speaker 1:
I'm like pulling up one person's pants, turning around pulling down somebody else's pants, getting glasses up from the top shelf so you guys could have a drink feed in. Ya, I mean, it wasn't just me. My brother definitely helped, especially with the driving element.
Speaker 2:
I was just going to say remember the driving, so I had a manual car.
Speaker 1:
Which I don't know how to drive manual. I refuse to learn. I've always been an automatic gal, but at that point in time mum did have a manual car and if we needed to get anywhere she would be operating the pedals whilst I would be trying to do the what's it called Gear shifting.
Speaker 2:
The gear shift yes.
Speaker 1:
Which I did not do very well. We stalled quite a bit, so we swapped out, we tag teamed and my brother had to step in and change the gears.
Speaker 2:
Until you dobbed on me to my dad. My dad came over to help with the groceries one day and you said to Opa, oh, that's okay, we can just drive to the shop. And he was like well, how are you getting to the shop? Oh, we just changed the gears for mum. He immediately put out his hand and said thank you very much, I will take those car keys. So after that point in time, we all had to get on the bus and catch the bus, and the bus driver would look at us, me and dolly, trying to get on the bus with two broken arms, a broken, another broken arm, a wheelchair. Yeah, like it was, just it was just ridiculous.
Speaker 1:
And to add to the hilarity of it all, if you can, uh, opa, when he took mom's keys he was driving around in mom's little honda jazz, not realizing why people were staring at him and tooting at him and we had to explain to all par that mom had a milf sticker on the back of her car. And what milf, and what milf meant.
Speaker 2:
So he wasn't too happy. So you know, moving forward from there, I had I did end up with quite a traumatic psychological issue from that accident in terms of, although I was physically fine, psychologically I was really upset with myself for admitting that I was going to be okay to die yeah because I remember saying to my sister uh, one day, when she was really unwell, I said to her I want to change bodies with you because you're so unwell and you've got a beautiful husband and children and I don't.
Speaker 2:
I have beautiful children, but I don't have the husband and I don't have the perfect life. I wish I could swap bodies with you. And she just looked at me and said, no, you wouldn't, as she does, she would, yeah. And so psychologically she knew she wasn't going to make it. And that played a real um, a real issue in my, my head, thinking why don't I think it was okay that I was just going to sit on the bottom of the river and be okay with dying? She really wanted to be here and I was giving it up. But do you think?
Speaker 1:
that's part of your body's way of just trying to protect what's going on in terms of the pain and the adrenaline, and absolutely.
Speaker 2:
Your brain is is an amazing thing and I think it was trying to calm me down in that very point yeah and I will say it was like a near-death experience. I've had one other experience like this before and it was very similar, yeah, very similar. So I feel like that calm, yeah, at the bottom of the lake was, or the river was, um, yeah, that near-death experience and and that's why I think when you do die, perhaps that's the calming that a lot of people do actually talk about that they're okay with it, but yeah, psychologically that that had a big impact on me.
Speaker 2:
And I talk about the financial things that came my way because of this accident, not in the next episode. Our next episode is all about what I think is my prince charming, but it's kind of like a wolf in disguise for the next episode. So I know this wasn't a lot about finances, but I did have to share that story with you because there is another significant impact of finances that come along with this.
Speaker 1:
Yeah, absolutely, and although it's not touched on here, it'll be touched on in another episode, and I think also it's just a pivotal part of like your life, like anyone's near death experience, I think, plays a significant role in the trajectory of where they go from there. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:
So thank you for joining us and we look forward to sharing the next episode of my very pivotal moment in terms of a relationship, because this shapes the next seven years of my finances. So thanks for joining us on Raising.
Speaker 1:
