I sprain one or the other ankle at least once a year, and this summer, twisted one again, but fell in a funny way and broke my femur bone. I felt just like you..almost wishing I had an alert button around my neck as I watched my daughter drive up the road and she didn't look my direction. I had to crawl in to the house. It is a scary feeling, and yes- once you fall, it happens again and again, unless you watch every little step. Oy vey!

The last one I had was a couple of years ago and I was heading down the metal steps on the upper porch to the bottom porch with a flower pot in my hands. Yep about 4th step from the bottom of the stairs my heal caught on the step and threw me forward. I landed on my hands and knees on the bottom concrete porch and I stayed there an eternity until I could talk myself into getting up. Lucky for me and you we did not break anything just sore and bruised. Take care and so thankful you were not seriously hurt. I remember telling Prince "I am too old to fall that way."

I can't tell you how many reports I have typed that people fall, can't get back up, and sometimes lay there for days until someone comes to check on them. Keeping cell phone literally on you or one of those life alerts is a good thing as we get older. Hope you recovery soon!<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6858197955705970353.post-17831989637829618192016-09-28T20:45:20.843-07:002016-09-28T20:45:20.843-07:00I am glad you are just sore and didn't break a...I am glad you are just sore and didn't break anything.
