Location: Las Cruces, NM | I want to apologize if I appeared to ignore anybody since Tuesday. I was broadsided in an intersection on the driver's side by a pickup that ran a red light. It destroyed my car and knocked me unconscious, X-rays showed no broken bones, but my left side is one big bruise and walking has been painful. I am living on pain pills so I have to be careful that I don't say something silly, but I'm alive and moving if slowly. Don't be surprised if I find this a good excuse to really speak out not my usual timid self.
Merry Christmas

Sorry to hear about your accident. My wife and I are going through a similar experience right now. Some moron going very fast in a school zone blew a stop sign and broadsided my wife a couple of weeks ago. She's sore still and our van was totaled. We're just happy that the van was the only fatality.
I hope your accident doesn't effect your playing too much.
Have a Merry X-Mas.

good luck hope you feel better. Remember things can always be worse, a High School friend buried his 24 year old daughter last week who died of a rare disease.
be well |

Sorry about the car crash. Sounds like you were fortunate to escape really serious injury, or worse. Glad you're still with us. Hope you mend soon and have a Merry Christmas. :D |

Glad to see you can still type, but a Bluegrass mandolin player "timid" ? That's stretching it quite a bit ;) Be well and Happy Holidays to you all. |

Location: Las Cruces, NM | Thank you all, your goood comments make me feel better all ready. Bradley, good luck and I pray your wife gets better, I sure sympethize with you two, never can convince anybody that the two minutes they save running a light causes much misery for the innocent victim, El Paso is worse than here. Thanks a bunch for the nice thoughts, I'll probably get a lawyer and I think a great Ovation should be part of a righteous settlement justified by it's therapeautic value.
Happy Holidays

Thank you and a very Merry Chrismas to you.
We decided to hire a lawyer only because the other party's insurance also has a lawyer. Her back really hurts now; I hope she recovers soon.
I just wish that some people would realize that for whatever reason they are speeding it just "REALLY ISN'T WORTH IT".

Location: puerto vallarta, mexico | just read this bailey. hope you are on the mend by now. accidents seem to hurt more the older we get. watch those pain pills amigo. i have been taking 60 mg hydrocodone a day since oct 2000 for my back. no bueno amigo. especially be careful if they prescribe oxycontin-------that stuff is really addictive if used for more than a short term. get past that pain as quick as you can buddy, and keep pickin', it is the better than any medicine the doctors have given me. |
