Thanks everyone!
I'd love to "teleport" through the wonders of wifi to participate in the
sudo meeting tonight. Is anyone willing to webcam me in?
*(just think, a few years ago before Google Hangoust or skype this would
have been prohibitively expensive - although I do spend more time looking
at lolcat photos using social media than I do creating amazing solutions to
help handicapped people in my life)*

If you find it, there is actually a hack for that--
you can use Comfrey
and put some water in, and make a poultice. You'd be able to find it in any
park in San Francisco, and the former gezi farm had some which is, on Oak
St. and Laguna. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comfrey Good luck Romy!

Oh no! I'm sorry romy! Yowch. I did that too
once.
That flexleg thing looks WAY better than crutches.
All I can say is be religious with regards attending to any physical
therapy after you've healed up a bit.
Best

Thanks Jake! I'm going to check out FlexLeg.
It looks like a very
interesting option. I like the fact that they rent the devices out too,
giving people the option not to buy them.

Life is a lot different with an injury. And now I'm wading through the
complexities of the health insurance system...
I'm much more empathetic to people in wheelchairs and with artificial
legs. [empathy is a lot better than sympathy!]
