enhanced mobility

Went for a short drive to the mailboxes today to see if I could.  First time behind the wheel in 6 weeks.  My horizons just expanded exponentially.  60,71,30,0,C

    You must be elated! I would remind you to "keep both feet on the ground" but that might not be the best advice.?! Easy does it.

    Congratulations! I know it must be difficult for a self-sufficient person like yourself to have to rely on others.

    Easy does it...in no time you will be back to normal :)

    Automatic trans not so difficult to work with your left foot, manual trans is a bit more tricky. Back in 86 I broke both ankles when a staging plank broke. Clubfooting my Beetle with two plaster casts was not so bad. The problem was when I drove myself to the doctor the day they were removed. The lower end of a disassembled wooden crutch worked the clutch and brake. I could barely work the gas pedal with my weak foot.

    I used a crutch for the gas and left foot for the break.

    That's great news. Don't push it, any setback is going to cost you twice as much time.

    Well John, I am rooting for your full and normal recovery. But today I prayed for you and gave you to God because he has your back and the master plan. I have to pause when agitated. And In the pause, I find God.

    People have always said I was a bad influence, guess it's true. You're out there following in my foot step...Of course being a responsible citizen like myself you installed your hand controls. They were in the box Manny brought you tomorrow, I mean today....right ?
