Personal: Auto Accident

By Jonathan Bailey • Jun 26th, 2006 • Category: Articles, Housekeeping, Personal

A quick note to everyone reading this site. I was involved in a significant car accident yesterday (Sunday, June 25). Though I was not hospitalized after the accident, I do appear to have some resulting injuries from it including, among other things. very severe pain and stiffness in my neck, shoulder and back on my right side. I am hoping that they are minor and will fade quickly, but I am under the care of both a chiropractor and medical doctor and don't know how serious things are as of yet. I should know more Wednesday.

Right now the biggest problem I face is typing. Sitting at a computer for more than a few moments is painful. I find myself having to take breaks after every few sentences.

In order to keep Plagiarism Today running while I'm recovering, I'm in the process of sending out invitations to trusted friends and allies that might be interested in guest blogging here. I'm also opening up the floor to anyone else who wants to consider it.

Since I write days in advance, I have an update for today, which I will post in a few moments, and most of one for tomorrow. After that, if I'm still unable to type or otherwise need to recover, I'll let the guest bloggers take over until I'm able to return.

I'll keep you posted on how I'm doing. I'm very sorry for any inconvenience this may cause but I hope that you can understand. Also, obviously, while I'm keeping up with my email, I'm not replying very quickly. Please bear with me.

Thank you in advance for your understanding.

    Hope all goes well Jonathan! I'm glad you did survive the accident relatively well. I don't know the details of your accident, but cars at high speed are risky. Get better soon and hope you recover well.

    Take care,

    Matthijs
  • Hey Jonathan,

    I hope you're alright. Take the time off, i'm sure the readers will understand. When you're feeling better, i'd like to hear from you.
  • Hope it's nothing too serious health-wise. I've been fortunate enough to be involved in only one car accident, and that was nigh ten years ago now.

    I'd take it easy for a while, no sense in writing when your health is on the line. If it hurts to type, then I doubt any of your readers would want to know that you're putting yourself in that kind of position.
