Got in a wreck yesterday (Wed. the 10th). That plastic bodywork on Saturns may be resistant to door dings, but not when you get T-boned at 35 mph or so.
The good news: it wasn’t bad enough to be admitted in-patient.
The bad news: I have three breaks in my pelvis from being sandwiched between the door and the console. Two are hairline fractures, one is a bit worse but none of them bad enough to show up on the x-ray. It wasn’t until the CAT scan that we could find them.
So, I’m home, got crutches, pain meds, and a referral to an orthopedist. Oh, and a urologist because there was some blood in my urine. Nothing showed up on the scan in regard to that, so I’m hoping it’s probably just some bruising. Next I get to call the orthopedist and then call my adviser and find out how to get my Govt. final rescheduled.
When it rains, it pours. But hey, at least I wasn’t on the Harley.
