Wishing all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
We will be celebrating ours a little later. The wife was in a car wreck Wed evening and is currently in ICU with a severely bruised lung and a cracked pelvis.
A kid in a pickup ran a red light and broadsided her as she was making a left turn (she had a turn arrow). He hit her hard enough the air bags deployed even though the front of the car was not hit.
The part that really makes me mad is that the two kids from the pickup and their parents came to same ER that the ambulance took my wife and they did not even ask how she was.
I have attached a picture of main area that was hit. We had to get a pry bar to open the trunk and get inside so that we could kick the driver rear door open.
Just glad none of the grand kids or anyone else was with her.
That is not me in the picture.

I keep finding little windows on this forum, that I don't really know what they do. So sometimes I experiment. Probably shouldn't do that, I know in my shop it can get me into trouble.

Thanks all for your replies.
The Orthopedic doctor was in today and said surgery would not be require on the pelvis. He has ordered PT to start as soon as possible. We still have no idea when she will get out of ICU.
Again thanks to all for your thoughts & prayers.

Guess I was not a very good boy Just hoping for a new Nova Chuck and some extra jaws. A powerpro would be a nice addition. Merry Christmas to all and a Happy New Year. Finished 4 Camo Pens today and was very relaxing.

Bob, Godspeed on the wife's recovery.
Merry Christmas to everyone.
Let the chips fly where they may this year! I have a feeling it is going to be a heavy woodworking year.
