I just cant stand it anymore...

Today was a life changing day for myself and my family.

I was not going to post anything about it but, I just cant stand it.. In Aug of 98 I was attempting to start a personal watercraft, and the thing exploded....The blast broke my back, L1 burst fracture, and completely dislocated my left knee. Anyway, the cause of the explosion was determined to be a spark plug that vibrated out of the cylinder head, thus causing the cavity of the craft to be filled with air/fuel mixture. All I did was push the start button, and next thing you know I'm flying through the air. The craft had just been picked up from the repair shop.

Today, through mediation, I reached a settlement agreement with the Insurance carrier of the repair shop.
I Never filed suit although I did retain a lawyer. It still has not sunk in yet first thing I did was structure annuitys(sp?) for my two sons projected college tuitions (sons are 6 and eight.)

Guys...I'm freaked out!...Sorry for the personal post....Joe
