******** Please do not try and explain what happened, the insurance and Police are still processing my case and i would rather not confuse things by them reading other peoples thoughts on what happened, and i know they do look on these sites.
Just thought i’d show you my car and me, i may up date with my progress if anyone is interested. Cheers! *******
First things, I’d thought I’d show you what my VX looked like, as you will see its a standard tubby.
I’m told i had a head on accident with a Clio which had 3 women in who also got taken to hospital but were let out the same night with minor cuts and burses. My injuries were a little more serious, i was in hospital for three weeks, when i was discharged this is what was put on my discharge note.
‘Injuries: open comminuted displaced fracture mid shaft of left femur, comminuted fracture left pateler, comminuted undisplaced fracture of left proximal tiba, right ulnar styloid fracture right patellar.
On the */*/2009 he had IM nailing of his left femur, tension band wiring of left patellar and cannulated screw of left tibial plateau. On the */*/2009 had a 2nd look, wound debridement, washout and closure of his left thigh wound.’
Which in layman terns means I broke my thigh, the bone came out of my leg this has now got a pin running down the centre of my thigh bone to hold it together. I smashed my left knee cap into about 8 pieces which was wired together. Just below my knee joint i broke my shin bone which has been plated and screwed back together.
On the other leg i have a cracked knee cap which does not require wiring but my leg must be straight for 6-8 weeks to heal and i have a broken wrist which is in now in plaster also for 6-8 weeks, and to top it all off i have chipped/broken my nose.
Now for some pictures ....... some are a little horrible so click away now if you don’t like it!!!!

The hole in the wind screen i’m told was made with my face!!!!!! And yes i was wearing my seat belt

A close up of my left knee:
This is where the bone came out of my thigh:
This is my hip where they inserted the steel pin into my thigh:
And finally my lovely face!:
I am now home getting around with a wheel chair. They have told me it will take about 8 months for everything to repair to the same sort of standard i was in.
I will still hang around on .org because i do think its a good site i have also met some great people mainly at the midlands meets and on the odd trip to Wales (you know who you are), once i am up and running i will pop and see you all at one of the meets however i may not be in a 220!
Thanks for reading,
********Again please do not comment on what or how you think i crashed because of my insurance claim and the police.********
Cheers
