One of my best friends, a guy I grew up with, became a Personal Injury Attorney in Illinois, which was fortunate because my mother is always getting into accidents.  Her problem basically is that she’s always rushing around and never slowing down enough to watch out where she’s going.  When she first came here from Ireland, she learned how to drive and after she got her license she immediately got into 3 car accidents in the same week.  She’s also always getting injured too.  One time, she got off the train and was rushing down the block and she fell down into the street because a chunk of the elevated sidewalk had worn away.  She stepped right onto it and toppled over.  She was all scratched and marred up and ended suing the city for not taking care of their sidewalks properly.  Of course, as these things go, it got all tied up in red tape and the lawsuit went nowhere.  Back then, my friend was only in law school and not yet a Personal Injury Attorney in Illinois.  Now she’s giving him business, a lot of business in fact.  More than any other client, but we all expected that.  She never learned how to take her time.
