Glad to hear you are mending well. You are very fortunate indeed. I had a friend several years ago (gosh...going on 15 or 20 years ago) who fell down the stairs and died in the accident. He was 35 years old. It was a terrible shock. We are more fragile then we imagine ourselves to be. I think back to my teens and twenties and I just shake my head at some of the stuff I did...its a wonder any of us survive past 25! I'm happy you're recovering well and hope for continued milestones in your recovery! Thank you. God is not finished with me yet. Happy to be around still and in such good shape. Great news my friend. Keep on getting better. Thank you. I'm getting better each day.

I met with the surgeon last Wednesday, and I have been off the walker and onto a cane. I haven't taken a pain pill for the last 12 days. I am starting PT on Thursday for strengthening and whatever else they say. I can drive now, but I am sharing that duty with SWMBO. The Lord has been very gracious to me. I think of that fall and know things could have gone way far south for me. I am blessed to be alive and mobile. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. I go back to the surgeon in about 5 weeks, and he anticipates I will be well healed by then. Great to hear! But you missed a golden opportunity. You could have told us that a bunch of big bad fellas jumped a little old lady on the sidewalk and you jumped into action and kicked their tails and held them down and made them eat dirt! You would have the battle wounds of a hero warrior! But you fessed up about falling off the ladder and poo pooed that deal, oh well.

Yep. The truth wins out again. It's a thing with me. The truth is always easy to remember. I just had a stupid moment and gravity took over. Bam! That's it.

You gotta learn how to land, it's the most important part of falling. I am too old to learn how to land. My emphasis is on avoiding falls altogether.
