To those saying maybe I should have worn my leathers...they wouldn't have made a blind bit of difference ..... my injuries are from the initial impact on the ground [i.e. midrift]. [My knees and elbows are only superficial grazing which admittedly the leathers would have stopped]

The leathers I have don't offer any real impact protection in that area so wouldn't have helped. My jeans or top didn't tear right through....the helmet saved my life though as I did wack it with some force and the gloves also saved my hands!
