Some people have all the luck

Posted by: Chris in Commentary

Not in the U.S. for even 24 hours, and I am involved in a traffic accident!

I am fine, am out of the hospital.  No broken bones. CT Scan looked fine.

I was in the passenger’s seat.  Head on collision (I am told), focused on the passenger side of the vehicle! Lucky Me!

Indeed, lucky I had my seatbelt on and the airbags opened.

I have cuts on my face (probably from glass or the airbag explosion), my left leg is brused and sweled.  Bruses and maybe some very light pain elsewhere.

Now will need to go through the excitement of ensuring my health insurrance covers it!

    Yeah, pretty good. My left leg is pretty swolen and numb, but no broken bones. I should be good as new before I get to Portland. I hope!

    I’ll try to keep things somewhat low-key while you’re here :)

    I remember that waking up in a hospital, not knowing what happened, isn’t very cool. It’s a shame you had to find that out too …

    Glad you’re not seriously hurt!
