Car Door

I hate to say this, but if getting in is that painful, and you can't close the door, you may not be able to stomp the breaks hard enough should you need to. Just a thought...

Queenbee's post reminded me of what I used to do in the Shogun to make the kids laugh. If you can't close the door, set off down the drive fast and immediately put on the brakes. That door will close enough for you to shut it properly

Thank you all for the helpful ideas. Now... where's that hammer? ha! Dr said I could drive at 2 weeks, short in-town trips only. Being a single mom, there is no DH to help, however DS is great when present. Thanks!!!

Donna, that is a very good point.
