Well, I'd have to say that health care insurance is only interested in making a profit, and also the medical decisions for its member.....and yes...I know this first hand...After my accident last year, I learned how ruthless Insurance companies can be. I pay my monthly premiums on time, and after 14 years of my payments, I need some medical attention. Now I have to fight for every Xray, meds, ets...that my doctors feel I need, but the insurance won't cover...and now....I have a "pre existing condition, that won't be covered down the road if I ever have to change health care coverage... Yeah...I'd have to say there are some serious flaws in our system.

3 Titanium plates and 12 screws, all in my face..... Mother Nature was not to kind to me last June... Landed in an invisible dust devil....

Well, My accident was just about a year ago...and since then, my total medical costs to date are...........$403,325.00....thank god I had insurance!!!!! You just never know what can go wrong.. Skybaby...

Well, no...the damage my helmet had shows it did its job....

Your so wrong...my helmet saved me!!! At about 20 feet I was picked up by a dust devil and landed face first into the ground. I fractured my face in 57 places!! and spent many weeks in the hospital...without the helmet, I might not be here...and also to note....the damage to my face stopped at the point where the helmet did its job. It was an open face aviator helmet....and it did do its job....no dreaming it...I went through it.

I think its a wonderful gift....

Actually...Jeff was off by 5 bucks....main side only gets 30.00

Yes, that was Q... Skybaby

Why yes Deuce, that is you....they went through some of Chris' video to pull out segments...and most of the footage from Chris is from Byron, during the last Boogie. Skybaby....

Oh yeah...I'll be there...........

Updated again Looks like there is going to be a huge DZ.com party in Byron this weekend!

I could not imagine not having insurance. The total cost to date from my accident in June is just over $302,000.00. And I might have one more surgery to go. Cost out of my pocket to date. ZERO....

I am counting down the days........ and its not to far off!!! Hopefully this week they will remove the wires from my jaw so i can eat again!!! Sandi

Oh yes.....I am planning on jumping by the Byron Boogie....if things keep healing like they are!! sandi

Hello all....Its me....Sandi.... Well, I've been out of the hospital now for just about three weeks, I've been staying with Chris who is taking the best care of me and making sure I'm doing what I should to get better, and things are starting to feel better. How could they not with all the love and support of you guys...THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH... My jaw is still wired shut (for another three weeks) I managed to fracture and/or break all the bones in my face. I now have five new plates to hold them all together. The swelling is just now starting to come down. I still have a long way to go, but I'm off to a good start. When I get some more energy...I'll post some more... Thanks again to all of you... Love....Sandi (Skybaby)

i'll be there on Sunday....and will do my best to get more video work...!!! I promise

Okay, I deserve that since I didnt show to the Lodi boogie....but ya know...things came up

Hey now...let's not start picking on me.... I didnt plan the dates... :( But I really do want to go there on Sunday....If I don't work manifest at Byron...

I think you're right...I just can't seem to stop... Now you guys have gone and done it... ----Sandi
