I don't know why, but whenever I read a story that involves some sort of "tragic accident" (in which the character usually ends up ~magically healed within a matter of days) I just cringe. I hate when people write those incidents in to make their character more pitied and sought-after.
I'll admit I love a bit of drama, but it shouldn't take precedence over the plot. It should fit in with the overall feel of the story.
I think the skill of a good writer is to know their strengths and weaknesses. There are some people (well, a few people) who can pull off massive amounts of drama because that's what fuels their story.
Anyway, I'm rambling now. Judgement Day is perfect the way it is.
