DD Hunter t-boned a full sized Chevy pickup doing 40mph on her motorcycle yesterday. The driver who pulled out in front of her said he didn't even see her. I spent over an hour with DD's husband pacing the floor with no idea what was happening behind the fortress they call the emergency room "We're still running tests" was the only information we could get. Eventually we were allowed to see her. She broke her left orbital bone (eyebrow area) and will be consulting with a plastic surgeon today. She filleted her pinky finger, sprained her hip, has leather glove embeded into the back of her hand, a gash in her thigh and may have bruised her spleen. The doctors locked her in the high tower over night for observation. The guy in the truck drove away after the accident and for DD, there are stitches, bruises, a banged up helmet, clothing they cut off and one totaled motorcycle.
I'll say it again May is Motorcycle Awareness Month.

Please give DD my best and let her know I'll be in touch when I get back in town.
There, but for the grace of . . .
I certainly will
Did they at least give the jerk a failure to yield ticket or something?
P.S. Fittingly, my word verification for this post is "painal."
Oh yeah, he totally got the ticket.
