An accident like this is not something one would wish upon anyone[bar one or two souls I can think of], but when it happens, it brings with it unique and seldom experienced feelings and conditions.
Firstly, your relieve because of escaping without permanent injury or death is like a newfound emotion, a breath of fresh air. You love life all over again.
Then, because of you having no choice in the path that is to follow, long and slow recuperation, you settle into a really blissful period of concentrating only on one thing, namely getting better.
You do your exercises, and even with those you can cheat a bit
, you read, you chat to people, but above all, you have time to yourself to really unwind.
Realise right from the beginning that time will heal this, and no way can time be rushed.
Wallow in your recuperation, Jaco, and see it as a holiday.
Disclaimer; perhaps because I am 60 years old, acceptance and patience came easier.
