I just need a ride to last me about a year to get enough money saved up and fix me credit.

Im praying I also get a decent sized compensation for this guy who tried to kill me and ruined me life. Enough for a good sized down payment would be great! But I know im going to have alot of medical bills that will need to be taken care of first, luckly he had insurance and so do I, so that should soften the blow. The ambulance ride alone was $1,332! I was in the intensive care wing for 3 days and spend another 4 days in the regular section of the hospital in bed.

I was given 2 IV's and had several scans/xrays done of my head I was also give a prescription for medication and also given staples in my head and they were removed 2 weeks later. I then had a scan done from a 3rd part MRI company who is sending my lawyer a loan that they will have to pay from out of the $ we receive from his and my insurance.

I think its safe to assume all this medical stuff is going to be a LOT of money sadly. I just hope there is enough between my and the guy who hit me insurance so I wont end up owing anybody. My sister is guessing that in total the medical bills will be around $40,000. Because my medical insurance from my job does not kick in until Dec. 2, so at the time of the accident I did not have medical insurance. All I have is my body injury insurance from geico which I think covers up to $15,000

I did that for a little while when my truck got stolen, and it wasnt that much more than what my truck payment and insurance was. I think i was paying like $550 a month for the rental. I have a corporate discount program that i could get you through my work. If youre interested in doing that PM me and i will see what the rates are. At least you'll have a brand new car to drive around.
