almost fatal wreck 3 months ago today

[fur24]

3 months ago Jan 8th I had an almost fatal accident totaling my beautiful baby Pearl!! I lost most of my hearing in my left ear, messed my eyesight up pretty bad in 1 eye, broke the whole right side of my face which messed up my nerves in my face, and broke my back in 3 places!! I don't remember anything from the wreck ambulance ride or being life flighted!! All I remember is waking up up a day later in the hospital n the 1st thing I asked was where is my car whats wrong with it!! No concern 4 myself just my baby n the reply was she's totaled!! The wrecker told me in 15 years of work she'd never seen that much blood from 1 person in an accident!! Doctor said I was very lucky 2 still be here!! I thank God and my baby Pearl 4 still being here cause had I been driving some plastic beancan I might not be here still I feel truly blessed!! Pearl will be very dearly missed I feel I owe her my life she will be replaced by nothing else besides another Aurora very soon as I'd never want 2 drive anything else ever!! Thank God 4 Aurora's!!

Sorry you lost her, but glad you're (relatively) ok!
Our thoughts and prayers will be with you.

Thanks man I've been doing really good!! The doctors said 6-9 months before I fully recover it's only been 3 and my back is completely healed and I can move the left side of my face now!! I'll have surgery on the 16th n then my face will be back 2 normal!! I'll still be waiting on my eye but I may never have the same hearing again!!

wow man. sorry to hear about. glad it wasn't any worse than it was. this is a testament to the safety to these cars.

[fur24]

Yes sir it is!! There's no amount of money I could've paid 2 know 1 day that car would save my life!! I will always remember the day I drove her off the lot!! Unfortunately I can get another Aurora she might not be the same as the 1st but I can get another I can't get another me!!

Thanks man I've been doing really good I'm having a very speedy recovery!! And I will be getting another I absolutely love these cars!! My mother offered 2 help me pay 4 a BMW I told her I wanted another Aurora and nothing else although I wouldn't mind an old 6 series lol!! But it can wait cause I gotta have the rora n I'm sorry 2 hear about the trans hope the fix goes well!!

Holy cow man, sounds crazy! What caused the crash?

[fur24]

2 tell the truth man I don't even know!! I don't remember anything from the wreck!! Woke up the next day in the hospital n they told me it was toltaled!!

Glad you made it out alive. Hope you get another aurora! Good to hear you are recovering some and hope it keeps getting better for you.

Hope it goes well for you now with all medical visits. Many people ask why I don't buy a small budget car. Your experience is a good response to their questions. Get well soon.

[fur24]

I appreciate it guys, really do!!!! I get a little better everyday!! N I will be getting another rora I'm just being picky!! Lol

Proof that plastic is NOT better than good ol American steel. I trust Stella more than anything new out there. Ya 20 +/- mpg hurts a little, but not as much as being paralyzed. HOpe you get another pearl. And get better.

oh wow man get better. Agree Auroras are the safest cars no matter what they say in crash test and how plastic car has better crash test than aurora.
