Callan Campbell

Callan Campbell, a recent high-school graduate, was a week away from starting classes at a local community college in August 2004 when the 1996 GMC Jimmy sport-utility vehicle she was riding in flipped over and rolled several times.

Today, she is a quadriplegic, confined to a wheel chair and suffering regular back spasms. Ms. Campbell, now 23 years old, sued GM in a Pennsylvania court, alleging that faulty manufacturing caused the SUV's roof to crush in and paralyze her.

Ms. Campbell has since had hip surgery and developed arthritis. A life planner estimates her future medical bills and future need for durable equipment and home modifications would cost more than $4.5 million, according to court papers.

A GM spokesman declined to comment on Ms. Campbell's case, which has yet to go to trial.

Ms. Campbell's mother, Deborah Glosek, says she refuses to believe Mr. Obama would allow GM to discharge any damages her daughter might win in court. If someone would just tap him on the shoulder, she says, I can't imagine he wouldn't think of these people.

Ms. Campbell says she wants justice for life-altering injuries that shortchanged her plans to run a flower shop. It's more than me losing any potential for a job, she says. I lost so much more than that. And they need to repay me.

    I am very sorry to the Campbell family, though he is still young and we know that there are many beautiful things that will happen to him. But with the incidence that come into his life I will just send to you my prayers that Jimmy will still believe that HE still there watching Jimmy to be okay. Just think of the positive reason why things happen this way. Despite the fact that he is not the only man in this world who has the same problem with his condition now. Be thankful that he has still his life with his beloved family.
