Then, in a video, she admitted that she’d never been in an accident that bad before.

ā€œI was at the dry cleaner. I pulled out. Somebody came, T-boned me. I had no idea that it was even — I was shocked. My airbags exploded. White powder started flying into my face from the airbags. [The] car was leaking something. I was so nervous. I couldn’t get out. I was like in shock,ā€ she revealed. ā€œMy door wouldn’t open because of the airbag, and I was scared that it was like gonna blow up. I was really scared that it was gonna turn on fire. So I was having like, a panic attack in my car.ā€

According to Melissa, she was ā€œokayā€ after the crash, as was the other car. However, her legs ā€œwere all bruised up.ā€

ā€œI’m pretty bruised up everywhere. Pretty bad,ā€ she continued.Ā 

Reflecting on how fast everything happened, Melissa told her online audience, ā€œYou just never know what your day is gonna consist of.ā€

ā€œI never in a million years thought I was gonna meet my girlfriends for lunch, stop at the dry cleaner, and then have a total car … literally and get into something that could’ve been really scary,ā€ she explained. ā€œI think about my kids when this happens, and like it could just happen to anyone at any time.ā€

ā€œI’m like shaky from it, and I just think it’s, you know, makes you count your blessings,ā€ she added. ā€œIt could have ended up very differently … [I’m] happy that I’m alive and that I came home to my kids tonight.ā€
