Honestly, this is why I so loathe these infirmary visits. You strap me to a bed (so much wasted potential, there) and I miss everything interesting.

And so few visitors! The lot of you wish me to die of ennui, is that so?

In all seriousness we really must discuss the matter of my release. Am I going to require surgery of any kind? It's been agony on my back to even try to walk; what is to be done?

I see. What would physical therapy entail? And for how long?

Stretches. Resting. Low impact exercise. A brace or a cane to take pressure off of particular parts. Nothing particularly strenuous.

...Fortunately we have a pool.

Doctor. How long?

It depends entirely on how much you restrict yourself to routine and conduct your business. It's always difficult to say with humans.

Make an educated guess.

A few months with a cane. Up to a year before the discomfort fully goes away. Never if you mistreat yourself.
