Chris, sorry to hear about your fall.  I just gotta say that my wife
lives on what was once a shattered foot and she's got titanium plates
in her arms and legs as well from a head-on collision.  And you know
what? She's a hell of a dancer and a much tougher built human for
having been through it. Witness the awesome self-healing power of the
human body, which keeps us from being clunked for cash at the first
sign of a limp. Keep your good humor, take it easy, and start thinking
about how you can mod your new set of wheels while you heal up enough
to pilot the old ones. I wish you good health and eased pain.

Vanagon content: anyone on the list own a disabled edition vanagon?
Does it refer only to hand controls or also a full lift apparatus?
Just curious, saw a brochure.
