nancy2 -I'm so sorry to hear of your accident .
I'm a 64 yr old who refuses to grow up and probably push myself too hard and ski too fast ----------------------but damn I LUV this sport
I've had my share of broken bones( wrists twice) and other chronic issues and so has my wife ( she had the screws /plates job etc) 2 yrs ago and while recovery DOES take longer now we refuse to go calmly into the long night !--
Live life , Collect people, enjoy each day and continue to push yourself because the Alternative is SCARY
