You call it 'guff', I call it reality.
In your opinion why is it NOT LIFE CHANGING as you have such a strong opinion I would like to hear you're reasoning.
What do I honestly think is wrong with him? ? It's very hard to assume without any real facts but such a lengthy stay in hospital indicates 'life changing'. Possible nerve damage, detachment of nerve or structure, major ligament damage. All these indicate a life changing injury AND a lengthy stay in hospital.
