I had broken 13 bones in my hand/wrist, shattered my pelvis, fractured 3 vertebrate, and fractured spinal column. Spent 10 days in MA General, came home in wheel chair and without a nurse or help. I was surprised to find a generous and exceedingly helpful and supportive staff at Vineyard Complementary Medicine- And Susan Sanford- to get me up/out, of a wheel chair, and back on my own within 3 months, not 8. Granted it was a lot of pain, but suffice to say, I was glad to get to the point that I didn't need the med's, gained strength, confidence, and only needed over counter/only as needed. I cannot stress, the importance of a positive, supportive, welcoming, and exceedingly gracious environment to gain skills, knowledge, experience, and forever information to maintain after an injury.
