Glad you are well. Make sure everything checks out from the Doctors. My dad was rear ended at a red light in his boxster about 8-10 years ago and his back is in really bad shape now. We think it was because of the accident.
Take care.

Wow, Mike, glad to hear you're ok, as well as the others. I hope the idiot was fined and if an illegal , jailed. VA has had to much of that crap. Remember the two young girls that got plowed by a hispanic illegal male that plowed into their car and killed them both? It happened about 2 years ago.
anyway, tirade mode off. Glad everyone is ok.

They backboarded me out and into an ambulance and I was carted off to the hospital for some x-rays... Everything checked out OK, but man am I sore... Neck, back, lower back...
Man my truck is toast... Rear frame is bent and the bed is into the cab...
Just paid it off too... Pisses me off...

I guess it's a sign of the economic times. We had a conversation via Cell phone on Friday and it seems that DODGE no longer makes that truck frame. They tried the whole "used" truck frame thing on me, and I refused... They're likely gonna be totalling it out today or tomorrow...
There's something called Walking Paralysis, which are very slight breaks within the spinal column that are often undetectable to xrays and sometimes even undetected by MRI's. The spinal cord is supported by the vertebra that are broken. These breaks are minute however can shift or break further through movement. If that happens, the Spinal Cord can be severed or pinched if that broken vertebra breaks further as a result of a further impact or twisting etc. Thus can leave the victim in temporary or permanent paralysis. So like Deep said, should ANY TINGLING or NUMBNESS appear, please go to the hospital or a spinal specialist immediately, even if it means calling an ambulance, and be sure to stabilze your spine. Make as little movement as possible especially in your extremedies because their motion could lead to a shift in the vertebra. Walking Paralysis is faily common with people who have diving accidents but can also occur in situations like car accidents. I don't want to alarm you,

wow, glad you are ok Mike, sounds like it could've been much worse. take care.

Obviously it's not on the level of the training that you've received lol but I learned about it in my Lifeguarding Instructor's Course through the American Red Cross.
