It was indeed, and I hope I conveyed the suspense in the post well enough. I knew it would cost less to buy a new truck than to recover that broken and busted truck from the riverbed, which would ultimately mean it would've become part of our land, far from ideal in such natural settings. I think my niece-in-law wasn't wearing her helmet, but of course we made sure not to mention that. Either way, she's lucky none of her injuries are debilitating or life-altering, and she'll eventually be 100% again, something that is rare after entering a Cambodian hospital.
