Sounds crazy

I am thankful that I have learned how to fall - not with grace, but it seems without major damage....

My latest effort this morning, courtesy of a mis-step and a an uncooperative leg (that seems to collapse when I need it - due to a spinal lesion) occurred near the top of a long and beautiful marble staircase. Lucky for me, once again, just sore muscles and a few bruises - thank god my bones are still strong despite steroid use in the past. My brain seems to just tell my body to fold up and sit down - hard. So lucky - it was a loooong, hard way down. It could have been catastrophic but it wasn't thank god.

My friends would have blamed themselves - which would have been awful. It was me and only me and my stupid body, Lesson learned - without too much damage.

I have these near misses regularly, especially lately, with three falls in less than four months - anyone else???

Regards

(a somewhat battered and bruised, but not broken)
