  • It’s been better, but my father was in ICU for 2 whole months because of a operation that didn’t go too well.

    It cost a lot of money, but he had to pay like 2.5k for it. I believe the whole ordeal cost upward of a 100k. This was last summer.

    He’s been in a wheelchair most of his life because of a fractured nek. he uses it with his arms, but has electic assist. No cost. And drives a special van with an lift that cost 110k back in 2011. He only had to pay part of the van itself, a regular VW transporter. The whole special system made just for him to get in, out and drive with only his arms was paid by insurance. I can go on just about him lol. He wasn’t lucky in life but at least he was lucky about being born Dutch.

    Again, city thinking. If you have everything closeby then a bike or walking is logical. I live rural, I get groceries weekly. Want to go somewhere? Car. Checking on family every week? Car. If I go to work, I need a car. See clients? Car.

    If I had just a bike for all of this I would be in trouble because there are not enough hours in a day to make it viable.
