My husband wants a new motorcycle but I’m on the fence. Here’s a little back story.

At the end of July 2019 my husband was in a motorcycle wreck. I had just got back in town and had only been in town for an hour when it happened. I had been 16 hours away in another state. I was on my way home from the restaurant we had met at and he was going to the gas station up the road. A friend who was following him was the one who called me. When I got there an ambulance was there and the EMT’s told me they believed he may have internal bleeding or possible loss of some of the left side of his body. Of course they told me they couldn’t diagnose him with anything. My husband also told me while they were loading him into the ambulance that he thought he was paralyzed. He wouldn’t feel anything on the left side of his body. They rushed him to the local hospital where they ran every possible test. He ended up being able to completely recover and had only broken his shoulder blade and had bruising on his ribs. They said he would needed physical therapy but did not need surgery. The next couple of weeks my husband was extremely sore. He couldn’t bathe himself or dress him self. He was also out of work for over a month. I happily helped him in any way I could but the whole experience had completely terrified me. I was scared for him to get back on a bike and I still am. He’s been riding dirt bikes and four wheelers since he was little but this was his first motorcycle and I was not happy when he bought it but I grew to love it. He had it for over a year before he wrecked. Seeing him laying in a hospital bed in pain and scared really bothered me and took an emotional toll on me. We’ve never discussed what we would want done if we were not of sound mine and body and the other person had to make the decisions. I promised him he could get another bike when I was ready and I’m starting to be more okay with him getting one.

I want to tell him on his birthday that he can finally get another one. I’m looking for some time of gift to give him to let him know I am okay with him getting another one. Please give me ideas his birthday is in two weeks

Thank you.
