Description of the problem | On 3/23/13 my husband and i were stopped at a stop sign when a person hit us from behind at about 45 miles per hour, when this happened the front seats broke and fell into a laying position. This gave neither my husband nor me any support for our backs. I was taken to the hospital by ambulance and my husband drove there. We found out that i had a herniation above my already fuzed back. My husband was perfectly healthy but after the accident, he has now a cracked vertebrae and 2 herniated disks. |
