I am doing okay -- just stiff and sore. Bruises are a lovely shade of blackish/blue with red scrapes in some places. Thanks for asking!

Oh, i'm SO sorry to hear that you fell down Barb! I really hope that you are feeling better now and that your aches and pains have gone away - i'm so glad to hear that you weren't seriously injured!!
Please take it easy and rest until you are feeling better!! I agree with what some of the others have said also, maybe it's time to get an assistive device if you don't have one already - I know it is a scary thought but you shouldn't be having to struggle any more than you already do!! I'm keeping you in my thoughts and sending you many pain-free hugs! Feel better soon!!

I don't want to be a nag but I am.
Being dizzy or an accidental fall is never anticipated. Old Saying: An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. I fell and broke my shoulder back in November. DH was not home so I had to pull myself together and I drove to ER. I repeat: You can never anticipate an accident! oh yeah, one more Old Saying: Never put off tomorrow what you can do today. |

Barb,
Hope you're feeling a bit better...that was scary. Get one of those medical alert necklaces that you can use if you fall...the type that alerts an emergency center. take care

I have to second it medical alert necklace or bracelet, better safe than sorry) rollator to use at night if you have no visitors
The first step is the hardest. (or as Rod Stewart says "The first cut is the deepest")

I am currently leaving phones on the ground in key locations when I am alone at night and wear my cell phone during the day. The rollator at night is really good, I can almost walk in my sleep to the bathroom, no worries. |
