Wow, how scary!!! Glad to hear that you are okay, though.
Might be a great time to re-negotiate your hourly rate! ;-)

Glad to hear you're home and sorry about the hip, hon. At least, if they released you to go home we know you're not seriously injured. Just stay off your feet for a bit and take it easy.

Drivers. If the tire hit a few feet higher, I'd be dead.

So happy to hear you're home. You're likely going to hurt like the devil tomorrow, so keep the Advil close.

I'm sorry your new car was squished. But it's just a car.
The important part is that you are OK. There are many Hondas but only one Swamp.
Sending good thoughts that the news about you continues to be good and that you are feeling better very soon.

I'm sorry about your van but glad that you are okay. Keep the advil or tylenol nearby. It is surprising how sore you can be the next day after the seatbelt and airbags do their jobs.

Glad to hear you are OK. Hopefully getting a replacement will be a snap. Hopefully things are slow at the office and you can take a few days off.

Keep some ice packs cold and a heating pad or hot water bottle nearby, as well, swamp. Those will help with the sore hip, and any other areas that are stressed due to this accident. I'm just so glad you're okay!

So have you figured out to how parlay this into some tiny advantage?
Not having to do stuff around the house and/or getting out of social outings you want to skip for a few days comes to mind. Be creative.

A tire flew off a tractor trailer and totaled my van. I'm on the E R getting checked out. I'm fine, I think, just sore. Make sure you call a good lawyer Sorry I just could not resist! Seriously I hope you are ok and get the care you need including massage therapy and what not if you feel that way. I know when I was hit from behind I did 6 mos of massage therapy and it made a huge difference but I have permanent issues as a result and wish I had gone with my dad's lawyers suggestion of pursing medical damage payout. It has made an unfortunate difference in my quality of life. As a lawyer I think we can assume she understands she should not represent herself....... Sorry to hear about the accident. If possible, can you explain something to me? How does a tire total your car by hitting the driver's side? Did you swerve, and run off the road? That would be totally understandable. I assume you were on an interstate (traveling under the speed limit naturally ) That had to be freaking scary. Bad enough to be on the interstate swerving around blown tires lying in the roadway without losing control.
I think a Cadillac Escalade should be the full replacement vehicle due to you

Value Buy: the wheel came off a moving trailer, flew up in the air and come down near me. The wheel buzz sawed the front end of my van. It was the tire and the rim. 3' diameter.
I was on a 2 lane highway 55 speed limit. I was going east, truck was going west. No median between the lanes.

He's going to rub it for me. My MIL has the kids today. Except for figure skating. I'm at the rink now. DH is working this weekend.
