    No family or a friend you can stay with who would be willing to help you out till the cast comes off ? Iam a mother of two grown children and if one of them was having this done I would have them staying with me or me staying with them till the cast came off I would be upset if my daughter did not call me and ask for help they grow up but you never lose the need to be there for them whenever they need you so think about it and ask somebody if you have no body then call adult services and talk to them even if they can not help you they may know who can

    it would be a whole lot easier if I lived in a downstairs apt but I have 15 stairs that I climb up and down at least 20 to 30 times a day my daughter says she will help me but she is only 9 and there wont be much that she can do
