I receive the legal vote stuff via e-mail since someone on the old message board requested that we respond to a brachial plexus case last spring. Today I responed on this case

I am so mad by the defense in this case that I responed quickly. Now when I try and bring up the

- Injury Description, Date, extent, surgical intervention etc: January 1980 Yamaha RD200 vs 16 wheeler truck, result, 1 totally paralysed right arm. I was 21, now 54. I had no surgery, I don't regret this. Decided to totally ignore limitations (easily done aged 21) adapted very quickly to one handed life, got married, had 3 kids, worked- the effect of the injury on my life (once the pain stopped being constant) was minimal and now, aged 54, I very rarely even think of it, unless I bash it or it gets cold, then I wish I'd had it amputated :) Except for a steering knob on my car, I have no adaptations to help with life, mainly because I honestly don't think of myself as disabled and the only thing I can't do is peel potatoes, which is definitely a good thing.
Re: Legal Vote - Accident
thanks for passing this on Jean, i tried to respond but it looks like you have to be in the States to get accepted into the site. My ex husband was a police patrol car driver for a while, he told me himself that 'It's like being a licensed boy racer'...after getting my bpi thru someone else's crap driving (as many of us tbpi's have) i didn't take too kindly to this attitude. I hope this poor woman gets justice.
Re: Legal Vote - Accident
I voted and I think every one else who lives in the US should at least read what happened. I am so angry I don't know where to start about what that defense said.

Re: Legal Vote - Accident
i can't get to read the case, but no doubt it's the same old story, cops investigate cops, wonder what they'll find? Scuse my cynicism, but the DUMBASS cop who attended scene at my RTA has lied totally to cover his own incompetence on scene causing me mucho hassle with lawyers. It is still under legal process so i cant say much more except he's a lying JERK and it's no wonder he's still a flatfoot at his age, hope this woman gets some sort of justice taking on the strong arm of the law, go girl!
