No, I couldn't. I might accept the apology and be happy and tearful about being alive everytime that I wake up, but I would never say "it's OK" - it just isn't. It wasn't okay that a dumb kid stole someone's credit card, it wasn't okay that he thought it would be funny to throw a turkey into oncoming traffic, and it most certainly wasn't okay that it shattered a woman's windshield and FACE. If I were this woman, I wouldn't be so quick to transform the grace of God or luck or the skill of her doctors into a lesson that we are not responsible for our actions. I don't think she's doing anyone any favors.
