Before DOUCET, C.J., and KNOLL, COOKS, SAUNDERS and DECUIR, JJ.


KNOLL, Judge.

Plaintiff appeals as inadequate the award of general damages for injuries suffered as a result of an automobile accident. Defendants answered the appeal and assigned as error the trial court's award of future medical expenses and the excessiveness of the award for loss of consortium to the accident victim's husband. For the following reasons, we amend to increase the general damage award and affirm the judgment of the trial court.
