Oh man, I’m sorry to hear this. I’ll put in a prayer for you and all involved. Rest easy and heal up my brother.

Thanks all, its been a long process, got rear ended (no lube was used) just before Halloween, broken shoulder and what initially was minor whiplash. all the pain at the time was in the shoulder so that was the focus, through pt and healing the shoulder additional pain was presenting as well as almost complete numbness in my hand on that side. it was all believed to be related to the shoulder but now that that has healed and rehabbed the neck pain and numbness remains. additional nerve studies and mris reveal some neck damage. in the end it will all be fine, just trying to avoid going under the knife if possible. some days the discomfort is barrable and other days not so much.

hey, i did get a new truck out of the deal and most of my honey do list got a pass for a while lol... not looking forward to the legal actions to come though. upside is because of the circumstances it was deemed 100% the other persons fault. most importantly, my 16 year old was behind the wheel and luckily has zero injuries.


More importantly, 9405503699300688639690 - on its way to the post office.

Best wishes for a full and hopefully speedy recovery. Overall, it sounds like the circumstances could have been far worse.

I am not litigious by nature, but I don't feel any sympathy for insurance companies. They write for risk and make plenty of profit. I hope you are compensated to the max limit of the offender's policy. I would not be passive in this situation.

I look forward to the box pass.

After that story, I feel the tracking # labeled S more importantly might be an arguable point. Hope you heal well

agreed, originally i had no intention of any legal action as my insurance company (usaa) took great care of us for the vehicle replacement and early med bills. sadly PIP ran out a while ago and now we are footing the bill. i wont go into medical debt for someone else mistake so lawsuit it is.

Should have read "as more importantly." Struck me as funny that after the list of medical woes, more importantly, the box of cigars is on its way

I had 172 miles on my Chrysler 300C and had a head on collision. I wasn’t moving but they ended up claiming it was a 50 / 50 blame. Anyway, USAA paid off my note right away and I was in a new car very quickly.

Appreciated, I may take you up on that at some point. We have a local PIL for this and so far they have been pretty good about answering questions and managing expectations. Currently just waiting for some dr follow up with neurology related to the last round of MRI.

No worries, life gets hella busy. Although if it looks like it’ll get here after June 4th, I may either ask you to hold it for another 3-4 days or I will need to punt to JGRAZ. I can also scroll through and list my puts and takes for a preemptive approval so I can get it out quick.

Just let me know what y’all think!
