Recieved some bad news from home....

Well... some good news! She is awake! I finally got some better details! She woke up this morning, they postponed her surgery until they can get her blood pressure stabilized. Her face is swollen very badly and she can't see anything. She was able to write on a piece of paper what she remembered happening. She has a lacerated liver, broken back, multiple broken bones elsewhere, and they're not sure about her spleen yet. She doesn't appear to any brain damage at this time. She hasn't been told yet that her boyfriend didn't make it because that would just make her upset. I guess she is unrecognizable at this point, but the plastic surgeon said he could fix her up once she is more stable.

My grandma has already contacted a lawyer who has given her the news that, if the ruling is that this was intentional, his insurance will not be liable. That is just plain phucked up!!!!!!!!!

What you need to do with the "intentional" thing is getting him to admit that he did not intend to kill or hurt someone to the degree that he did. Intentional acts are not covered but did he really intend to kill someone, he would probably say no. Did he really intend to put someone in the hospital on life support and probably surgery after surgery for an undetermined amount of months or years, probably not.

You should also have her turn this into her own automobile insurance carrier as there is coverage under most policies for pedestrians.

Good luck, any questions let me know.
