Yosemite on crutches?

hey! I am an avid hiker and a runner and just got diagnosed with two stress fractures in my hip and I’m probably looking at eight weeks of crutches. I was planning on a june trip and I’m wondering if it’s still worth it. haven’t been to an orthopedic doctor yet but based on research that’s my timeline guess. also already super depressed so not sure if not being able to hike would make it worse or if I can buck up and have a good attitude doing alternative things

Similar recovery timelines?

right sacral fracture (part of the pelvis near the SI joint)

A right inferior pubic ramus fracture (another pelvic stress fracture)

Stress reaction/edema in other nearby bones

Bilateral hamstring tendon partial tearing/tendinosis

Adductor strain

I just care about being able to walk around and go on hikes anyone have any ideas?
