You are probably somewhere in the middle of it right now. The crash happened, the initial chaos settled, and now you are in that strange suspended period where you are not sure whether you are fine or whether something is wrong, whether you should be calling someone or waiting, whether the soreness you woke up […]

You’re trying to figure out what your pain is worth in dollars, and the question feels strange even to ask. It felt strange the first time it occurred to you. Pain isn’t something you’ve ever thought of in financial terms before. But you’re living with it now, it came from someone else’s negligence, and somewhere […]

You have never had to do this before, and you did not plan to learn how. A few weeks ago, or a few days ago, or maybe yesterday, something happened on a road that was not your fault and now you are hurt and your car is damaged and your phone keeps ringing with numbers […]

You are waiting on the crash report, or you already have it, and you are trying to figure out what it says about fault and what that means for what happens next. Maybe the officer at the scene seemed to believe the other driver. Maybe they gave the other driver a ticket and you want […]

You’re wondering whether what you recorded, or what got recorded automatically, is actually useful. Maybe you have a dashcam and you’re not sure if it captured the right moment.

You got your MRI results back. The report says something about a herniated disc at C4-C5 or C5-C6, possibly with radiculopathy, possibly with foraminal narrowing, possibly with words you have never seen before and a tone that feels clinical and distant from the pain that has been radiating down your arm for the past three […]

Your back hurts and you need to understand why. Maybe it started at the scene, or maybe you woke up the morning after the accident and couldn’t get out of bed the way you normally do. Either way, you’re trying to figure out what’s actually happening in your body, whether it’s serious, and what comes […]

You did not go to the emergency room after the accident, or you went and they told you nothing was broken and sent you home, and now you are sitting with symptoms that will not go away and the growing suspicion that what happened to your head was more serious than anyone officially noted. The […]

Something is off. You were rear-ended days ago, maybe a week ago, and you did not go to the hospital because you felt fine. Or you went and they cleared you. But now you are sitting somewhere noticing that the words on your screen look slightly strange, or that a noise in the other room […]
