You took a settlement I asked you not to because you thought you knew better. You told me I was young and resilient, that I would be fine. My doctors blew through that in less than a year. You wouldnt fight for PT for me, you thought you knew better.

Well, it's many years later, and only now can I get back on a bike. Of course, I am on a bike because I have so much trouble walking. I might not have healed better with proper care, but I had a *right* to it, to try to heal as well as I could have.

You righteous, pretentious ***. You smug idiot. I hope you get it now. I hope your nursing home attendant is a cycle commuter. I hope your kids live three states away and are too "busy" to visit you. I hope I never see you in the street, because I might need a lawyer if I do.
On behalf of my profession, I'm sorry. Too often, people only have interactions with the worst among us. There is no excuse for the way you were treated, and it is not right.
