    I'm so sorry this happened to you. I can't imagine the pain you must be in! Can you walk?

    So sorry that this happened to you. A local rider was "hit" by a dog at Christmas time and sustained bad injuries...broken pelvis, collarbone, shoulder, wrist, and scapula. The big thing was as noted above....be sure to make a police report! The dog must be reported as a menace and the owner cited, depending on your local laws.

    Best wishes for an uneventful recovery.

    How scary! I wish you all the best. Hopefully there will be some kind of silver lining in all of this.

    So sorry that happened to you. +1 to what everyone else has said, especially Mary. Sending healing thoughts. Your health insurance company will go after the dog owner for THEIR medical expenses only, so you need an attorney of your own if you have lost wages and your obvious pain and dis-ability.

    I hate to even say it, but knowing you're vegan, you are going to need LOTS of protein during the healing process, so be very careful with your diet okay?

    Hang in there.
