Allow all the swelling and trauma from the surgery to go down and heal. She may just feel good enough to walk. Strenuous activity will be out of the question, even when she feels good. How about being hotrod builder that can't walk half the time? I started my own shop again because I can't work for anyone else with any regularity. Dreams will still be attainable, she'll just have to make some adjustments to get them.
Tell her to keep her head up. Better times are coming. I promise.
