    My accident happened back in 1998. Soon after the accident...the company that I had worked for, closed its doors. I still have a lawsuit against the city I worked for because since day one...my medical bills haven't been paid! The guy who did this to me...took his life by overdosing on street drugs. Every day I am in great pain, but I still go to work. I am on heavy duty pain med's. There are some days, I wish that I can take a rifle and shoot my leg off or cut the damn thing off myself. I feel bad that I am putting my wife through this...she's been a real help. I worry that she might leave me, but she reassures me every time that she's not gonna leave...she's my best-friend, a great mom and wife.
