With so much unfairness in life, it's news like this that keeps us rolling the rock up that hill one more time:
A Letcher County woman suffered a horrible injury early Thursday when her arm was severed in a car crash on the Mountain Parkway in Clark County.
...
Sheila Vice, a nurse's aide, and an off-duty EMT from another county stopped to help, and put a tourniquet on [Jacqueline] Dotson's arm to stop the bleeding. Her arm was found near the accident still clutching a cell phone.
They were able to re-attach Dotson's arm, but had to remove it again after incidents involving the hand trying to slap her, choke her, and grab various objects in the room with which to hit her in the head. It also made obscene shadow puppets.

Posted by floridacracker at February 19, 2006 03:05 PMI found your site when I googled "Gram Parsons." Someone back in October of last year asked whatever happened to his sister Avis. Unfortunately she and one of her daughters Flora died in a boating accident in Virginia Beach, Va in September of 1993. She was survived by her husband and another daughter named Avis. Apparently they had many friends in the community according to the news report. I couldn't figure out how to post to the part of your site about Gram so I'm just sending this directly to you.

I'll re-open that post's comments and add this info.
