Hey Jack -- I'm of the opinion that every cloud has a silver lining. The freebies have introduced me to some authors I'd never have given a second look at. And while I've not enjoyed *all* of the freebies I've read, I certainly have enjoyed many. And then add in the very inexpensive books from independent authors and I've had a grand time reading on my Kindle and Sony readers over the past 18 months.
I hope you heal quickly -- but even after the arm is well, there's no reason to abandon electronic books. They may not totally replace paper books, but they're a great alternative, particularly for books I might want to keep. They certainly don't take up as much shelf space.
