Entering the coach on one foot.

My wife shattered her right foot while in Las Vegas in Dec. a few years back. The surgery took place 2 weeks later and they said they would keep her overnight. After it was all done they said things went really well and I could take her home tonight. NOOOOOOOOO...... I live in a motorhome, it has steps, she's still 1/2 drugged up and how am I supposed to get her from the car into the coach? We don't know (or care) but we will certainly help you get her into the front seat of that big van you are driving! If I had a video of the effort once we got home I would like be a You Tube superstar by now but the good news is that we did make it safely home. Another 3 months and she was able to walk down the steps with out the butt to step to step to step routine to get in and out!

Take care of that foot so it heals up better than ever. It's a major pain in the butt (don't laugh so hard), but by the end of the 5 weeks, you'll either have figured out how to do it, crutches be damned, or you'll have a freeze-proof butt.

Sorry to hear of your pain.

But look at it this way. Follow the Doctor's orders......In a few weeks you'll be running up those steps like a kid.

DW has been there and done that.

Wow! Good luck!

A couple years ago we were camping in Southern Missouri and the neighbor camper was a woman and a man in a wheel chair. The man came and went from the motor home quite a bit, but he always got in and out by sitting down on the steps and sliding up one step at a time on his butt. If the feet are incapacitated, I don't know of any other way to do it. I had a right knee replacement last July, but could lift with the other leg one step at a time, until the replacement knee leg strengthened. It sure wasn't fun. Hang in there through, and follow Dr's instructions, and you'll get through it! Good luck!
