Three weeks prior I had surgery on my shoulder for a torn rotor cup. My shoulder may be reinjured. My arm appeared to be broken but was not. My father in law had cuts and burns to his face.powder from the airbags filled the car completely before I could get the car stopped.my wife had bronchitis at the time and I have emphysema.
