Your family is doing everything they can to help you through your recovery, really they are! But your non-weight bearing time is hard and your family doesn’t understand what it’s like to be you right now. Sure, they can pitch in and do chores, cook, and even run errands for you, but they can’t experience what you are experiencing. They may be sympathetic, but until they go through something like what you’re going through, they can’t truly understand.
And that’s a big part of why Goodbye Crutches created “The Community.” The Community is an online place for people to connect with others who are going through similar things. If you are struggling with a certain part of the non-weight bearing lifestyle and just want to talk to someone who’s been there, The Community is there for you. If you have a question about how you could make one aspect or another of your recovery easier, post it in The Community and allow people who have been there to answer.
