My friend broke my leg and cost me $13,000. What should I do?

Ahh that's pretty terrible and a tight situation you're in! I can understand why he would stop contacting you but it really was his fault. He shouldn't have tackled you even if it was just playing around. He is in fact responsible for this. He may be your best friend but you have to get over friendship and think about your life. I can realize why he may be scared but maybe you guys should split the bill. Half on his credit half on yours.. since it's a little bit of your own fault for not having insurance, I don't believe he should have to pay the whole bill. But it's still his fault. If he doesn't agree to these terms; sue him. Maybe one day he can forgive you but you're the one with the permanent leg damage, the financial troubles, and the stopping of your life..

I can defiantly understand and emphasize with you on how hard this will be especially if he, doesn't agree, but you are the one with the troubles now. It's your life; not his. You must deal with these day to day troubles and although he is your friend, he is only that; a friend. However bleak it seems friends really do come and go.. and friendship may not be worth the troubles you're about to be dealing with. (and even if so is it really worth it.? He stopped contacting you when things got rough..would a real friend do that? It was HIS fault after all and he needs to take responsibility..)

The above answerer is incorrect.
There are a slew of "Residential Hotels" around Chinatown/The Financial District (Beale St.) which offer daily, weekly and monthly rates.
