Oh, man ... As hard as it is to accept, it was truly a blessing that your wife only had a few bruises.

How goeth the physical therapy. In some recoveries ... it can be a beyotch.

My brother laid his Harley over, around three years ago. All that he knew is that he came to in a hospital bed. Funny thing, he's a physician and it wasn't a hospital with which he had practice privileges.

Actually, it seems as if you came out of your accident in worse shape than he, from his accident.

Look into quad canes. You'll have far more maneuverability than crutches ... or limping without them.
