My First 911 Call.
 

Well, I slipped and went boom, on my new floors and could not get up. I first called DD....NO ANSWER..:mad:. Called 911 and they sent a nice officer hunk and 3 firemen hunks.:o:o:o

One firehunk got on one side of me and one on the other side and lifted my 185 lbs, like it was nothing.:eek: I am so totally embarrassed and really feeling down now. :(

Having a damn cold doesn't help. It just made me weaker. I am going to have to get something, Non-slip for places on this new floor, where I transer to and from my scooter.

Thanks for being here to listen..:grouphug:

Was it due to MS?....Well I'm pretty sure, but maybe there was a banana peel on the floor?...ha-ha

I hope it doesn't happen again to you....

((huggs)))

Hello, Sally -- I told ya not to wear those Christmas "slippers." :rolleyes:

Or was it b/c of those darned "throw" rugs?



Got any pics of those firehunks? :D


Glad you didn't injure anything more than your pride.


Be keerful!!! :hug:

It was due to slippery new floors. I slid right to the floor, didn't hurt, but because of my weak left side and no traction and nothing sturdy to hold onto, I couldn't get up..:mad:

Oh Sally..... :hug: :hug: :hug:

I'm so sorry you fell. I hope you're ok. I'm glad you got hunks to come and pick you up. (You pay taxes for that you know.:p)

I have that problem now and then. I hope this is a one time occurrence. Can you get your construction hunks out there to check the situation and make sure it doesn't happen again? Take care dear... :hug:

Yes, Im going to e-mail my const. hunks right now, so they will bring mr something non skid for me, when the come tomorrow. Thanks for reminding me..:hug:

Glad you're okay, Sal. Geeze......the things some people will do to get big, strong men to come to their house! :rolleyes: You just had the construction crew there. Wasn't that enough?! :cool:

Seriously, though, I know that must have been scary. Get some socks with those little traction thingys on the bottom. I have some because of the hardwood floors here. I'd have them...MS or not. They're great!

Sally, this is very scary. Am glad you are OK, and hope you find a way to deal with your new floors.

Be really careful when getting out of bed if the flooring is there too.

Awwwwwww Sally, I'm soooo sorry this miserable disease took a swipe at you. :( I KNOW the feeling -- it's so embarrassing having to call someone to rescue you. Personally I felt like a "beached whale" sitting on the floor waiting for help to arrive.......but then a fall can happen to anyone. Hope you're feeling okay today since a fall can really shake you up. Please be careful and hang on!!! Take care....:)
