Certainly when I was in the hospital and in rehab I wouldn't have imagined joking publicly about my situation... though also certainly I shared some belly laughs with the good folks in Salt Lake and in Boston who were connected to my care. Even a year ago, fresh out of the hospital and trying to settle into a new life, if someone had said I'd be "doing comedy" about losing my limbs, I'd have dismissed the idea. And yet... here I am now, doing comedy, and planning to do more!
