Physical therapy

Several of my friends are getting rehab at the physical therapy place in Willowdale: one has a new knee, one has a broken leg, another has a crushed foot. The woman with the new knee says the place is like "Starbucks for the disabled": a warm sense of camaraderie develops because the clients see each other there a few times each week, socialize while doing their PT exercises and note each others' progress.
After I wrote this, I found out that a gym friend is going to be joining them shortly. She managed to tear her anterior collateral and medial collateral ligaments AND her meniscus when she came off her horse and is having repair surgery this coming week.
