Michael Gilson Recovering from Car Accident



After recently being elected as the LNC Region 4 Representative, a few weeks later I ended up in a car accident. My wife and I were stopped at a red light and then we got slammed by a speeding car from behind trying to switch lanes and driving to fast on a slick road.


I ended up in the hospital emergency room waiting for a CAT scan and my neck hurt from whip lash. The force of the other other car was great enough to bump the dashboard and loosen some of my teeth. Ouch.


I had much support from friends and family during the painful weeks of recovery.

I was thankful I had my Libertarian friend and LNC Region 4 Alternate Sean Haugh who will attend the future LNC meetings till I am recovered from car accident injuries. At present I'll require several months of physical therapy and I'm told by my doctors that it may take several years to recover and let my injuries heal.
