Thanks to all for the kind words!! 
My Step-daughter is 14, she will be 15 in about 2 weeks. She is also very tall, about 5'9"-5'10" as well.
This was her first trip ever. I have been a big disney fan for my entire life. My whole house is decorated in it, and you can see my license plates as well in my sig.
I finally was able to make it to wdw for the first time in 1999. After that, i said i would go every year if i could. It is a wonderful place. I missed going in 2003 due to a divorce, but was able to go again in 2004. My 2 sons aged 15 & 13 have been 6 times now, and this trip made 7 for me. My now wife has been the last 3 trips with me, and her youngest daughter 10, was her second trip. Her oldest was not living with us when i first took them, but in dec she came to live with us so we planned on taking her as well. she was very happy after hearing all the talk from the other kids on how much fun it is.
I dont think she is soured on wdw, but is hurt. She feels bad for 'ruining' the trip, which she didnt do by this. Things happen. We tried to make the best of it. Sometimes it was ok, other times it was not at all. I know she wants to go back when she is healed so we can try it again. My wife and i were going to try and get to DL Paris next trip, but we may put it off so we can all go to wdw again next year, or later this year, depening on what happens. If disney would have just said sorry or let her use an ECV, we probably would have been fine, but they let us fend for ourselves on her walking. that upset us a lot. I do know they are covering themselves. I work for a major grocery company as a manager and if we have someone get hurt, we just hand them a form to fill out and we fax it in and claims handles it as well. We cannot say a word either, but we at least try to help them or do what we can when it happens at our level, no matter whose at fault.
Even though claims has called us now and has said they will have a check for us for medical and want to settle it, they have not admitted a thing. They did say we will have to sign a release which, as ive seen at my company, it will give them something for bills and settlement, but we would have to sign saying we dont hold them liable or cannot go back after them later if we accept. Thats just how big companies work sadly.
Again, my thanks to everyone who helped and wished us well. i will post the outcome if im able-they may have a no talk clause-or least say when we are done with them.
to everyone for us.
