Did you ask the doctor if it'll grow back or are you thinking it won't grow back? Chill and ask the doctor about hair regrowth. I'm sure it'll be fine.

They don't know. I have to wait until I see the plastic surgeon in a follow up in a week. Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck

Now they're telling me I lost the clothes my brother brought me. My nice red pants and brand new fucking flannel shirt, and my favorite converse shoes. Gone. FUCK MY STUPID LIFE.

I moved rooms three times and the nurses fucking lost it. And now I'm about to fucking lose it.

sorry to hear that Raban :'(

You'll make it through this though, and I'm sure your hair will grow back. I'm not familiar with white hair - can't you just grow hair around that part, and it'll fall over it...?

Raban, sweetheart, that's not too bad. You're on your second (third?) day of recovery after a major accident, so of course it'll look rough for a bit, but I promise it'll look much better before you know it. Take care of yourself for now, and have some faith in the human body!

(It survived a car crash for Pete's sake! Cut it some slack lol)

You're alive babe, focus on that for now.

G The Resurrected · « **Reply #131 on:** January 13, 2014, 08:44:27 PM »

Hey don't get down on yourself about this. You're looking at a long road ahead of you of both recovery and emotional stress. Lets not get off on the wrong foot going forward. You are a strong person I know you to be that person and you are that person. You just have to believe that things will get better, maybe not today but tomorrow or the day after that or a week or a month or a year. It's a long road, but we'll all be here to cheer you up and when you feel down we'll be here to get those spirits back up.

Would you be apposed to us doing something for you? Like send you some Converse?

I'm mostly talking about every one else's posts like "do this and then fuck him up" could be misconstrued.

Pretty sure the hospital records, EMT testimony, pictures of Raban wrapped in bandages will trump any "lookee, the plaintiff was joking about it!" plays the defense attorney can make. Also: Hit-and-Run, if Raban's lawyer seeks standard damages, will never get to a court. The insurance company will settle.

chronovore · « **Reply #133 on:** January 13, 2014, 09:30:29 PM »

Everything Shaka said is spot-on.

You'll be fine. You're alive, so you're already on the winning side of the curve, where bicycle vs. pickup accidents ending with ambulances are concerned.

Your scar will end up being sexy, but you can also think about including cosmetic surgery to your overall recovery bill, depending on the guy's insurance coverage.

Do not make any deals with his insurance company without talking to a lawyer first. They will fuck you three ways from sunday before giving you anything approaching a reasonable settlement.

Raban · « **Reply #134 on:** January 13, 2014, 10:00:55 PM »

Leaving the hospital so early was really scary and I think it amplified my stress to absurd levels. It didn't feel great to have all this bad news hit me at once.

I'm calmed down now, at my friends' house all tucked in and getting my perscriptions filled. Thanks for the support as always, guys. I just still can't believe this really happened to me. It's wave after wave of shock, and I'm quite ready for the day to be over.

brawndolicious · « **Reply #135 on:** January 13, 2014, 11:15:17 PM »

Hair doesn't grow back on scars but you can get get a graft done on the area. I had a scar from a jaw surgery that left a bald strip in my beard and they grafted some hair onto it.

Hair grafts onto scarred or burned skin are also covered by insurance.

Wow, what a terrible experience

I'm glad to see you're okay and found a good place to live while you recover. Over a year ago I bought a bike. Despite riding a lot in college and as a kid and never ride the new bike. Turns out getting older made me terrified of the road. Drivers suck

The hospital found my clothes

Feeling a lot better this morning. Swelling feels like it's gone down and I got decent rest last night. Had a nice little chat with my host, Amanda, and we're both just in awe of my situation. She offered to get anything I might need from my dad's house so that she could have the opportunity to scold the living shit out of him, and that made me smile

Oh, and I'm gettin' over the hair thing. Always wanted to try the punk-rock look anyways

Laughter really is the best medicine. I asked my host to tickle me for a minute and I feel like a million bucks now

I even feel more prepared to take on this recovery. It's like that quote from The Wire, "You're only sick two days, the day you catch it..." "...and the day you get better."

Wait...

Holy shit! Just saw all this! So sorry to hear Raban... I hope you get to feeling better soon! Fuck that guy, fuck your asshole dad, and fingers crossed for buttloads of cash! Glad you have fun girls to stay with too!

Don't worry too much about the hair. It sucks now but they can do a lot if it doesn't come back right. When I was little, my sis had a car crash and head injury, so she didn't have much hair for awhile, but it all came back. It was scary at the time because I was 6 and hair was really really important, and hers was so fabulous, but looking back, it was the early 90s and that big hair needed to go anyway.

Raban · « **Reply #156 on:** January 15, 2014, 11:20:10 PM »

I think what made it so hard at first is that this is the longest my hair's ever been and I was so totally in love with the way it looked and felt. But like y'all are saying, it's just hair. There a lot of ways to wear it, and yeah there are procedures I could do if I wanna go down that road but right now I just wanna wait and see. I was convinced I'd go and shave my head bald but my host convinced me to keep what I have so... We'll see how it grows

OH MY GAWD call in to that KGO lawyer Lynn Tillon. He's awesome.

This isn't serious advice but he does at least give you the confidence of an actual lawyer telling you everything will be all right and he might even set you up with some big shot personal injury friend he has while telling everybody IMMALAWYA.

Seriously. I'm completely serious.

Raban · « **Reply #160 on:** January 17, 2014, 05:42:08 PM »

Got the police report. Dude was uninsured, wasn't even his car. He pretended to be a witness when the police arrived, left, and was caught again when his car ran out of gas on the side of the road where he finally fessed up after the officer noticed damage to the car.

I also got to see the plastic surgeon today and removed some of the sutures. I can finally wash my head, too

Just so you know Raban, even if he was uninsured you can go after the owner of the vehicle since it is their responsibility to make sure the person driving their vehicle is insured. That doesn't mean much, but I'm just letting you know there are other avenues in which to go.

chronovore · « **Reply #173 on:** January 18, 2014, 04:25:42 AM »

Another reason to contact a lawyer.

Crap, sorry to hear the guy wasn't insured. The car owner, as mentioned, may be another avenue.

Raban · « **Reply #174 on:** January 18, 2014, 11:29:45 AM »

I'd misread the report, apparently he just recently bought the car. The report seems to state that it's still registered with the previous owner

Human Snorenado · « **Reply #175 on:** January 18, 2014, 11:51:11 AM »

fuck... this is the worst possible outcome for legal reasons. Don't get discouraged though you should still press on with finding a lawyer and getting some representation. Were the cops at all helpful in telling you what you should do next since he was being held on a felony hit and run? I'm still surprised it was only a 50k bond for something like that.

Raban · « **Reply #178 on:** January 18, 2014, 03:15:42 PM »
