from what our lawyer has told us (geoff also has WC)
his settlement would be a lump sum of money calculated for the rest of his life expectancy and there would be a separate account where all his medical bills, prescriptions, dr visits etc would come out of but he would have to physically write everyone a check for these things but it an account that can't be touched unless for medical needs...
We have no idea of any numbers yet but we also think they will be wanting to settle sometime soon since they have just upped geoff's standing to "catastrophic"
