Thanks so much for your comment. My wife also suffered injury. She had herniated discs, and subsequent surgery L3,L4,L5 fusion. She did so well she went back to her desk job in just 3 weeks. That was 7 months ago. She is working some with our horses now, feeding and stuff outside. I feel like a bum watching her but I know I have to heal. This really encouraged me to go ahead with the surgery once she was stable, but I seem to be plagued with what the Dr. calls crappy luck. As for the stupid driver, he and his 3 friends just left the liquor store on their way to a party with a car full of liquor bottles, and not a single scratch on any of them. Our explorer was pretty much destroyed. I think I tried too hard to miss them. Thanks again for listening. Whats up with you? rick
