Is going on a cruise with crutches worth it?

I shattered my tibia 4 months ago and have been non-weight bearing on crutches ever since. So needless to say I've gotten pretty good on them and am still very much active (rock climbing, canoeing, camping, etc) but I'm worried that the cruise will be too big and more of a hassle than fun.
I'm wearing a removable aircast so I will be able to swim. The broken leg part isn't the issue (I got the okay to swim from my doctor), it's really just the mobility, especially off the cruise.*I'm going with my dad and 8 yr old brother so I will have some help and understanding if I need it. I'm going on the Oasis of the Sea, Royal Caribbean cruise. I have another 3 months non weight bearing so I'm mainly going to break up those months a little bit.*

Anyone been on this cruise or one similar? Better yet, on crutches or a wheelchair?

I've been on a carnival cruise once and boy was it great!!
You'd want to explore the place and keep going back to the buffet lol
Yeah but it definitely isn't a vacation to sit on unless you sat in one of those lying down chair thing to take a view at the ocean. But i say go because hell if i had two broken feet id still go! And if your not give me your ticket! :D

Get better and i hope you have a blast and bring a camera!
