My mom snapped her ankle in three places about 8 weeks ago. Now that her doctor has her walking on it she is thinking of how to exercise once its completely good to go.
We went to check out ellipticals and mentioned the injury to the salesperson who informed us that her doctor could write a perscription for the elliptical and she wouldn't have to pay sales tax, the government takes care of it. Her doctor wrote her one and she got a Precor 5.35 and saved over $350!

Just wanted to pass that on.
