  Dear friends ----

  I am speechless! I can't believe how many of you took the time to send notes and pictures and best wishes.

  Ian --- you dear man --- what am I going to do with you??

  From the email I sent to Ian yesterday:

  >>> Now --- don't worry, but I was in a doozy of a car crash this afternoon and have a fractured elbow and assorted aches and bruises and sprains. A woman ran a red light right in front of me as I was on a divided highway going at highway speeds. I had no way to avoid hitting her and then I ended up down in a ditch, narrowly missing a utility pole (thank God!). The airbags deployed and filled the car with smoke (the paramedic on the scene told me there is a small explosive charge which detonates them) and they couldn't get my door open at first. They had to get a ladder because the right side of the car opened onto a steep ditch filled with water. The other woman seemed basically ok. I hurt all over, but the thing that hurts the least is the fractured elbow. I will be seeing an orthopedic specialist this week and I will also see my chirporactor tomorrow morning.
  
  I am assuming the car is totalled --- but the good thing is that we were going to have it painted and had obtained a few estimates but hadn't yet had the work done. It would have been annoying to have smashed up a new paint job <s>! <<<

  Things hurt worse today --- I can't lift either arm at all, and I can't bend my sprained wrist and fractured elbow enough to eat with my right hand. On the bright side, maybe I will lost weight !!! I dropped half of my salad into my lap tonight. Hee hee. It doesn't hurt toooo much to type, and the good thing is that I can turn pages <hooray!> <sigh of relief!!!> The bad thing is that I can't work the lever on the right side of my recliner.

  The trauma has messed up my blood glucose (I am diabetic). Unfortunately, I normally control my diabetes with daily exercise (water jogging), which is going to be out of the question for a few days (at least).

  To those who asked about my getting back in the saddle and driving again --- as soon as I can turn the ignition key <owwww!> and can move my arms enough to feel that I have control of the car, I intend to be back in the driver's seat.

  Love to all,

  Marjorie

  I sure hope you heal soon and aren't too uncomfortable.

  Wow I sure admire your guts I'm not sure I would be so eager. You take care and heal up soon!

  Been there

  Best Wishes for a speedy recovery. You could sit backwards in the recliner and use your good hand to work the lever. Just a suggestion........the view isn't to good though.

  Hope you are feeling better today.

  Ow! Get better soon! Sometimes I feel, all cars should be equipped with a huge bumper. As they have on bumper cars. Anyway, hope things pan out and you are up and running about soon.
