My gums have been hurting on the side of my jaw where I had the head injury last week. So I went to see the dentist, to see if anything that happened during the fall affected any of my teeth. The technician took exrays and nothing showed up on them to be alarmed about, it all looked fine. So the dentist said I probably just bruised my gums on that side of the jaw during the impact and that it should heal. He did not charge me for the exrays or the exam. I was moved deeply by this. He is so kind to me!
He said I should be allowed to contact the Library's insurance company and that they should pay for the medical on this. I didn't think that I should do that, because it was I who was carrying the books that blocked my vision of the curb I tripped on. He said that they have insurance for just that purpose, in case someone falls on their property and that all businesses are required to carry such insurance. He said it didn't matter whose fault it was, that their insurance would cover it. I don't know what to do now. I felt like it was my fault that I fell, and that I should pay the cost of medical bills. He said no, that their insurance should cover it.
What would you do?
