And this was just a routine accident. Why would we want to stop the
activities that make up your life, just to make sure that you can work every
day. That doesn't sound like a life worth living. If I was not able to
play soccer (of which I have injured my hand), or softball, or golf, I would
be the most miserable person, mother, employee around. But that's my 2
cents.
