I was like that life alert woman who shouts "I've fallen and I can't get up."

I am seriously looking into getting one of those gizmos you wear around your neck...this imbalance stuff may well kill me even though I survived two bouts with cancer.

I admire your courage trying yoga. If I fall over one more time, I'm going to take to my bed for good.
