Default Today I took another fall

I have been loosing my balance more and more. Somedays I cannot feel the pressure of my feet to walk, instead I feel it from the top of my ankles which is very painful. Anyone know what I am talking about? I lost my footing and fell tonight. Still trying to figure out if I am really hurt or just a few bruises and scrapes. I have been thinking about asking the doctor if it is time for a wheel chair but I feel like I would be giving up if I do. Lots of things go through my mind like my safty is more important than my pride, but then I also feel like the doctor will think I am being silly. Lots of mixed emotions. I already use arm crutches to get around and wear braces on my feet and legs to keep from turning them.

In November I came down with a really bad staff infection on the bottom of my foot. It is still healing. What a slow process that is! After all this time there is still a small open portion of the wound. Don't even know how all this got started except that I had a blister from who knows what on my foot.

Thanks for letting me just air my thoughts and frustrations a little.
