I was riding home from work a week ago (friday afternoon) and when I made the turn up Neville, a car first hit my front wheel and then hit my head. The guy named, Derrick, stopped and asked if I was okay and insisted he walk me and my bike home (I live a couple houses away from the crash). I was in shock and didn't realize I had actually gotten hurt or wasn't okay. I knew my bike was messed up, but I was too concerned for if the driver was okay (he was really traumatized that he hit a cyclist) and that I was okay. He didn't give me any of his information and it turns out I actually had a concussion and now have post-concussive syndrome. I am having difficulty thinking without getting dizzy and nauseous along with other symptoms. It has caused me to not be able to attend classes all week.
I am trying to find Derrick. He seemed to be around 30 years old with dark hair and an eyebrow piercing. I believe he lives in Pittsburgh and seemed like a nice guy, despite the crash. I know he also rides bikes. If you are Derrick or know anyone who fits this description, I would like to find him. This means a lot to me if anyone knows him or how I may go about finding him. There were about 6 people on Neville sitting on their front porch who witnessed the crash as well.
Thank you.
Julie
