I agree Kathy--forget the freaking money, I want a new spine. I was awarded a settlement for my 2nd MVA and it didn't even cover my out of pocket expenses.

It's amazing how fast morons in cars can completely change your life--for the worst.

It sucks, I don't even care about the money, I just want to be better. Sad thing is, the little bit of money I got, just barely paid my out of pocket costs. No reprucussions for ruining someone's life.
