Thank you all for your prayers and good wishes, I cant tell you how much it means to me to read these replies!!!!!

I'm up walking around and feeling good. The elbow is still a problem but doing therapy and going to the big city to see a specialist soon with hopes they can do more for me with it.

Drivers insurance paid me for what I had in the bike so no money lost there. Will start back to work the first of the year!!

Again thanks everyone and hope ALL have A SAFE and MERRY Christmas!!!!!

Bob
Glad to hear you are on the mend. Keep up the good work, and you too have a safe and Merry Christmas.

Damn, sorry to hear about this and see the results. Hope you heal quickly and get back out as soon as you mend completely. You can always get another SERK, but surviving it and healing up is the priority. Hope you're home for the holidays.

What did that cager have in the windows? Looks like newspaper or maps, or maybe those were added after the collision?  :nixweiss:

Anyway, get better soon man!!

Sorry to hear about your accident and glad you did not get hurt any worse than you did.  Sounds much like my accident last Aug only worse.  I was only doing 35 mph and managed to get on the brakes some before hitting the right rear quarter panel.  16K to fix the SERK but the insurance company covered all.  She didn't have insurance; how about yours? 
all the best, John

John

Thanks and yes thank goodness he had insurance, problem is however his limits were not high enough and I will exceed it and have to go to mine for underinsured motorest. People really should check the limits your carry on your insurance. It cost so little to carry the higher limits.

Bob,
  Sorry to hear about the accident, but as everyone else has said at least you are for the most part okay. Hope you are able to get the elbow back to normal operation and get back on the road soon.

Good Luck,
Jim

Had a car turn right in front of me and I ran into right rear passenager door. Was Only doing about 55 or 50 but it threw me 25 ft onto the road. Broke Rt ankle, Lt thumb, shattered Rt elbow, broke Rt clavicle and compression fracture of L1 in my back. Recovering but rt elbow will not be as before. Dangerous roads out there so be carefull. Bike was totaled.

Bob,

I'm a newbie here as of yesterday. Sorry to hear about your crash. I suffered some similar injuries in a crash in 1996, though mine was my fault -- too fast in a corner. Recovery sucks, but it beats the alternative. You bike can be repaired or replaced. You will heal. In the meantime, focus on getting better, enjoy life (Hey, you're still alive, right?), and eagerly anticipate the day you are back on two wheels.

Cheers!

Thanks all, I am healing and getting around pretty good now. Only problem is the elbow and still have some pain in the back but that will get better. The elbow will have some perminate loss of motion but I thank God it was not worse and could have easily been much worse. Thanks to all for the prayers and good  wishes, I hope all have a very Happy and Safe New Year!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Bob,  I'm so sorry about the accident.  Thank God you didn't get killed.  My prayers are for you and your family.  Hang in there and fight the good fight.  If there is anything I can do to help you bro, just ask.  Sorry about the pain.

Bob,

  Although we can't feel your pain, we got your back.  God willing, we will always be here when you need to talk.  I hope the new year brings you nothing but the best.  Hang tight bro.  Randy
