    PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE think about your potential future bills. I got hit by a car in September of 2007. Just had to have another surgery about 3 weeks ago to my left knee. Medical bills, treatments, medications all get real expensive. I am so glad I have an attorney. He has helped to keep the bill collectors at bay for all of the treatments that still haven't been paid by the insurance company... long story...litigation, blah, blah, blah...anyway, it is NOT about the money. It IS about your health and needed medical treatment. Prepare for the worst. Get a good attorney. If you get a settlement, put it away until you are fully healed in an interest bearing account. Take care of you. Wishing you the best. Dawn

    Get well soon! What a crappy situation, I hope everything gets paid for (also future medical bills).

    And that thing is still stuck in your sinus cavity?
    Thanks!

    Yes, I have a horse and I trade with the farm owner for board by feeding and cleaning a few stalls every day. I am actually thinking about selling him because the people are planning to move next year and I may not be able to find such an affordable deal. Plus I want to focus on cycling and other thing and the poor guy has not been ridden in a long time.

    Yes, the dental probe piece is still there. I could never get a surgeon to call me back about it and I didnt want to have to pay to have it taken out.

    Thank you for the advice. My attorney has similar advice. So sorry to hear you are still having problems.

    Wow-Arielmoon! I haven't been on the boards much, so missed the post about your accident. I'm glad you're healing well.

    Update 5/22

    I went to the doctor on Wed and had another X-ray. Everything looks good and the bone is bridging nicely. He was pleased that I am walking without a cane or crutch but wants me to continue PT until I am walking without a limp. I have been on a stationary bike in PT and he told me I could ride the trainer at home. I suppose it goes without saying that Dara was attached to the trainer as soon as I got home... LOL

    I will see the doctor again in 1 month.

    You're doing good! How is the legal side of things going?
    For 3 days, I get to part of a thousand other journeys.

    Nothing new there. My attorney wants me to reach MMI before we file.
