Okay guys,
it is now the month of June. Y'all are awfully quiet and that kinda makes me a little concerned.
I told ya about my encounter with an 18 wheeler on the top of the tallest bridge span in Ohio back on April 25, right? (I don't remember) If not, coming home this truck decided he did not like the inside lane so he just illegally changes lanes to the outside edge of the bridge. Only problem was that I was in that lane right next to him. The car was within inches of being thrown over the bridge to a 240 foot deep valley below.
The idiot apparently realized he had resistance after he hit me three times. and destroyed the driver's side of my car.
Well, that was then. I got my car back from the Body shop this week. Great job. Cannot tell my car was in a bad accident.
Had to go north to Columbus again. Back up I-71 from I-275. Came to the Bridge. Had the worst Panic ATTACK of all time. Heart pounding and racing in my throat, arms tingling then numb then limp. Foot and leg frozen so could not even keep foot on accelerator pedal. Breathing fast and hard trying to stay conscious. It was bad and ugly.
I made it to the other side at 30 mph. Pulled off the interstate and sat there for fifteen minutes trying to calm down and feel my arms and legs again.
Coming home much later I went way out of my way to avoid that bridge. Sent a note to my doctor about it and he said I need to get to a psychologist. Apparently people who are involved in things like this sometimes have issues like these as a result of that scary life threatening incident.
I never thought I would be one of them. I cannot go across that bridge and not be a danger to everyone else on the highway and myself. I can barely talk about it without shaking.
So, on top of that, the trucking company whose driver illegally changed lanes and caused this, has a third party company Gallagher Bassett Services. This is who my insurance company is dealing with. Look these folks up online and pray you never ever have to deal with them. The complaints against them are endless.
I am out of pocket $2,000 to be re-imbursed by these chumps and now I have mental issues that affect my livelihood.
My daughter the lawyer tells me to go to Farmers Insurance local agent who is my agent, and demand Farmers provide one of their attorneys to go after my out of pocket costs from these people. I do not know if they can or will do that.
In the meantime I need to find a personal injury lawyer. Great.....
So that is how things are going here. I did win a couple new customers last week and working on another in Columbus whom I have a third call to go back and make. Pretty much a done story there but one more family member to talk to about moving up to a 400 percent better product than what he is using and at a lower cost. A no brainer, but sometimes being accustomed to the same old stuff for a long time makes it difficult for some to change for the better because they are afraid of the unknown.
Met some nice folks in West Virginia and have supplied some powder as sample to coat their product with and should save them so money.
So that is it from here. Anyone know a good person injury lawyer that practices here in Ohio???
Let me know....
My best to all my friends and teammates here!
