Narrative

I was in a rollover accident on June 26th 2025 in my boyfriends 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 where we flipped 5 and a half times. The wheel separated from the rim. I will upload photos since I am unsure how to explain how the wheel damage is. During the crash the drivers air bags deployed but the passengers did not. When we finally landed we ended up on the roof. My boyfriend tried to unbuckle my seatbelt but it would not release. He ended up cutting my seatbelt and then at that time (approx 3 min after we landed) the passenger airbag deployed striking my boyfriend in the back, neck and head. Which knocked him out for approx 1 hour. My boyfriend had several open lacerations to his back, neck, head and his arms and metal pieces were imbedded in his skin. He also suffered other injuries like a fractured back, and several other medical problems.I got a severe concussion in which it has caused me severe headaches, memory problems and cognitive issues. Both of us have reduced quality of life.
