On Jan. 6, 1983, Linda Anthony, 29, was on her way to work, doing her usual commute between Pottsville and Harrisburg, Pa. "It was early in the morning," she says. "I hit a patch of ice and lost control."

Anthony's car struck a telephone pole, breaking it in half and ejecting her from the car. "The top half hit me in the back as I was thrown out of the car," she says. "As a result, I had a crushed spinal cord, broken leg, arm, wrist, cracked ribs, collapsed lung and crushed right shoulder."
