Can I resolve negative reports on my credit resulting from an auto accident?

I was critically injured in an auto accident at the end of July of last year and was hospitalized for three months. As a result, I wasn't capable of managing my finances and was dependent on my family for doing so. During that time I recieved a 30 day and a 90 day past due notice on my credit for two separate credit card accounts. How can I get this resolved?!? The credit reports are accurate but because of exceptional cirstances my credit has been severly negatively impacted. Thanks in advance for your istance!
