Broken axle and more...

Alright, well first off I now how stupid what I did is, but it's over and done with now. Brief story is...went to bank to cash my check, then was going to buy new rear tires for my car. When I was leaving the bank I started turning out slow, and mashed it...got sideways and b/c of leafs in the roads it came around way too far. My right rear nailed the curb ....the wheel got smashed and broke off the axle. The brakes and stuff are still attached to the wheel, not to mention some body damage done. This is my 1st claim on insurance, and there are no marks showing that I was trying to get sideways....the leafs basically screwed me. My question is what should I make sure they check out on my car besides the obvious? Could parts of my suspension/rear been damaged...the car dragged on the wheel for a few feet until I stopped, but I think that's better than dragging on the rearend and such. I'm gonna be in debt for this one...so I would like to maybe atleast get some 4.10's (12 bolt would be even better ) or something out of it. Please spare me the flaming, and any good advice would be appreciated
