Busted my ankle in Sept while in St Thomas. They picked me up from the curb with a wheelchair, got me through security and to a special handicapped waiting area near the gate. Since the plane didn't have a jetway, they used the lift (normally to bring food up) for me to get to the main door. I was able to get to my seat, crutches in overhead. At ATL, they wheelchaired me to new gate and then in PDX wheelchaired me to my hotel van. My friend loved all the 'benefits' of early boarding etc with me.
