Plaintiff fell violently on her right heel, fracturing the bone, also known as a calcaneous fracture. The fracture required surgery, rehabilitation and medical follow up. The plaintiff still experiences considerable pain.

Plaintiff was a student at the time of the accident so there was no lost income. She lacked health insurance so the amount of the bills were $50,984, none of which had been paid.
