I am so sorry!

While I was non-weight bearing after breaking my first, second and third metatarsals, I did get the knee scooter and used it on the first floor of my house. If I was going somewhere where there was a lot of area to cover (like the grocery store or my son's school) I would get my husband or son to load it in the car for me. I could have probably done it, but it is fairly heavy. It was a life saver, though.

When I was using my crutches, I had a bag I hung around my neck to put stuff in. Also, get food and drinks in small single serve containers. You can't get a gallon of milk out of the fridge, but you can put a small bottle/container of milk in some type of bag you can carry over your shoulder or around your neck. Likewise, it is hard to make a sandwich, but if you can get someone to make some in advance for you, or get some microwaveable meals then you can manage that.

I was lucky enough not to have to drive during the first few weeks after my accident. I know it was not wise, but after a few weeks I did drive with my right foot, but I don't recommend it, especially for any long distance. I only did very short trips. I have heard there is some type of adapter you can get to allow you to drive with your right foot, but didn't look into it myself.

I borrowed a shower chair and recommend that highly. You can back up to it while it is in a tub or shower, prop your crutches against the wall, and it is very stable while you sit down on it. I then had a regular chair in my bathroom with everything I needed to get ready right there. Once I went downstairs, that was it for the day. I didn't come back up again until bedtime.

It sucks, but you will get through it. Good luck!
