Get well, and find yourself a good personal injury attorney. You deserve compensation.

Nor does anyone care about random people who post on message boards.

I have 't seen the bike, but the one guy said I would be surprised at how good it came out. Right now I have no clue where it is and I haven't talked to the police yet.
Don't know about Texas, but in some states the law is if your vehicles didn't make contact, the other guy has zero responsibility, even if he was the direct cause of the accident. You may hafta sue YOUR insurance, and they may try to go after his. I dunno, but good luck.
