Just be mindful that in your time of confusion and chaos, the
insurance companies may try to pull something. I've had good and
bad. The other one may try to put the blame on Cindy. Yours may
try and nickel and dime you. Or you could get lucky. Just don't
automatically trust them. Do not let Cindy talk to them if she's on
pain killers. I had a kid pull out of a parking place and drive
into the side of the car and somehow that was my fault. Then the
insurance company tried to claim there was a rider on the policy
that strictly forbid him from driving dad's car. I have no use for
Allstate.
But then when Anthony from Brooklyn plowed into the back of the
blazer on Route 9 the insurance company we had went after him. I
was shocked when she called and said she'd gotten the deductible out
of him and was sending it, too. You just never know.
more than you needed to know, (especially now). I know. I just
worry, take care, be cautious and don't settle too quickly.
Good news about Nate. Wish them all the happiness in the world.

Thanks everyone. She is really sore today, but I think
things will be more so in the coming days. We'll be watching her.
We couldn't get the stuff out of the car because it's Sunday and
it was towed in to a municipal yard. The guy at the yard was
asking if she was OK...... you know it's bad when... they don't
see much to salvage.
We are going to a first birthday party for Nate's girlfriends'
little girl. (not his..... boyfriend dumped her when he found
out.....%$^#) She is really sweet. They are really in love.
Haven't seen Nate this happy ever. Chalk another one up to online
dating.
Nate got a new job on Friday. Instead of an Equities Trader for
Chase, he will be with Sungard right down the road. He will be
routing the trades for Chase and other huge companies that use
their systems. No more 3 hours a day on the train (and $200 a
month for tickets), and they have a chef that cooks lunch every
day, and a gym with showers for the staff. Good raise..... The kid
has the world by the tail.
Thanks for all the well wishes!

oh, John. Tell Cindy
we're all thinking of her and wishing she gets past this
real quick with no lasting problems. It can be weeks before
things finally show up, so watch her carefully.
And the insurance company isn't a bunch of (fill in your own
word, family list).

Cindy was on her way to a job
this afternoon, headed North on Riverside drive, and
an SUV (trailblazer) didn't see her coming as he
turned on the the road from Moore St. He broadsided
her on the passenger side (see his license plate
holder) and it rolled her 3 times before she came to
rest pointed the way she came from. She was probably
going 35 or so. Thank GOD no one was on the bike path
she was sitting on.
We had an ambulance ride together, and she checked out
OK. No concussion, lots of abrasion from broken
glass.... it was everywhere on her. Thank GOD for
safety equipment on these cars. She was wearing her
belt. That is the worst injury so far. Very sore where
the belt was holding her. She has a pretty good bump
on her forehead, and a scrape there, along with knee
scrapes and elbow scrapes, but nothing serious or life
threatening. The next 3 days will be very hard I bet.
We will have to sort out the police report tomorrow,
and get the stuff out of the car, where ever it ended
up. every panel is affected, and the roof. There was
no drivers side glass intact. I do not think it will
be getting fixed. We sure liked the car, and it saved
her life.
Please put her on your prayer list for a speedy
recovery. I have her put to bed for the night. If you
want to touch base, please wait till morning. It's
been a long afternoon.
Thanks,
JC
