Hey Donna,
Glad to hear your Mum is doing OK and that despite no seat belt Ed has recovered from the accident.
Let us know how you got on with that 2nd opinion. No expert but sounds to me like you are still in shock.
If you get a chance google PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder).
Feel better soon.
Love
Gabriele
