Lisa,
I'm so sorry about the accident. I'll be sending you my positive thoughts for a speedy recovery.
If there is something you need, just holler and me and the VX family will do whatever.
Peace and Postive thoughts

Thanks everyone for everything, I think the paramedics and ER staff have never heard so many profanities! VERY sore today and lots of burns from airbag and seatbelt, looks like someone punched me in one eye. Thank goodness I work for an ear surgeon, because I have lost the hearing in my left ear, blood behind the eardrum, need to see to what extent, but to all who knew me, that was my GOOD ear! I have never had every part of my body hurt, but it really shows someone was watching out for me, 10" toward the front of the car and I would have had major head trauma and maybe pelvis....those are very tough trucks, mine was still running! I am still in shock and emotionally this is as bad as the death of an animal or friend...sorry, only my 'car' friends understand this! There is NOTHING else I want to drive, and I want a VX that I can make exactly like the one I had, even though I really think I had THE gem. Dang narcotics make me talkative kinda.....I am going to go cry myself to sleep...
Hope that pain is the only reminder, nothing long term. The VX is another story, a true loss. Hope you'll remain amoung us and find another. Good thoughts and prayers all for you.

Glad to see you back on the forums Lisa! We've got the jager in the works. We'll help you find a new baby to love and cherish. I know that if anything happened to my baby, I would feel the same way you do. We're here to help you through it. But focus on getting better!
You work for an ear surgeon huh? Can he help Gill out? He's deaf! ;)
Oh yeah... Can you PM me your address? We have something for you.
LISA... Buddy... I am really sorry for your loss. I am Glad your ok and wish you a speedy recovery.
I know on the bottle it says do not consume alcohol with meds but.. Man after seeing those pics I would make and exception just to intisify the said "drugs".
Lisa or Tone either of you need anything let the fam know. Keeping eye out for '01.
Man I need to not be soo absent from these boards.
Just a thought on the replacement... is there anything on your totaled VX that's salvageable? Might be cool to take something from your old VX and retrofit it into the new one. Like keeping part of the memory alive.
Hope that wasn't too hokey.:)
Lisa,
Hope your feeling better after a good night of rest.
I kinda like what vt_maverick brought up. :nog:It's sad about your beloved VX, but she/he could still live as a doner car.
With that said.............................................. ...............................................
.................................................. ..............:rollb2: Any thoughts on your rims/wheels??? :wtfb:
Peace.

p.s.
Remember Rob Allison out of Ft. Worth. He has an immaculate black VX for sale.
Lisa,
My heart really goes out to you. I've never been in that bad of a wreck (had an Amigo totalled out from under me but that was because I got sammiched - looked worse than it was) & never lost a real gem that way.
Best wishes for a full & speedy recovery. Hope you'll be well enough that I can take Y'all to dinner in mid Nov when I'm in town.

That's truly beautiful idea to alleviate the sadness of the situation. I have always kept some dumb little plastic part from each of my cars and thrown them into my tool-box, but this is exactly what I'd do if I replaced my VX with another.
Glad you're going to be OK Lisa! Very tough break - but that impact makes it look like you are pretty lucky to have made it out without worse injuries. Wishing you good luck with replacing your VX and a speedy recovery!
The pictures gave me goose bumps and literally made me a little ill.
You're right, 10" forward and you would have had some serious issues. I'm so glad that you are in one piece and on your way to recovering. Try to take it easy so your body can heal itself and don't worry about finding another VX....we're all on it.
Let us know if there is anything that we can do.
My sympathies on your loss. But at least you are ok. You are actually pretty lucky from the looks of those pics. 2 more ft and, well, lets not think about that. Speedy recovery!
Just was catching up on this....I do wish you a speedy recovery and hope you bounce back Lisa. I know car accidents just flat out suck, been there and done that. Hopefully you'll get whole again too in some way...those things always seem to work out, don't worry.
Best to you and a speedy recovery!
horrible news.... that sux hard... glad ur alright... after seeing them pics i woulda flipped out....
keeping memories of ur baby is a great idea... id take asmuch out of mine if something ever happened
feel better:)
wishing you a speedy recovery!
