And I worried about food...shoulda worried about NOT falling

[sherri~ 77]

On thanksgiving...Went into my sisters house with her split entry. Her dog was on the steps I thought she'd escape. So I tried to turn quickly and felt the "slow motion" fall begin. I ended up on my left side. Banged my knee shoulder and ribs on the top of the step.

Last night sleeping was awful. Very sensitive to the touch. Today I'm sore all over!

After that fall...choosing food wisely was the least of my problems!!!

Grace and elegance...not my strong suits!

Sorry u don't feel well. Hope nothing is seriously injured. Take Advil if u can for pain and use ice. Maybe sleep in a recliner if u can. Elevate,ice, Advil or Tylenol and a recliner. Feel better. If not or big bruising go get seen. Take care.

No Advil! Bleeding risk

So sorry that happened!! But I have to say....you seem to have taken it in stride, and did I even detect a slight bit of humorous irony in your post, lol? True, we didn't get "turn me into a graceful gazelle" surgery....just WLS <tee hee> Hope you heal quickly....and maybe stay away from your sister's house, lol.

I think my whole family was so concerned about how to deal with me and the whole food thing...so it was a real ice breaker for the day. when I got upstairs (finally) they joked about how they'd already finished dinner.

For about 5 seconds I considered telling them to just bring me a small piece of turkey to the landing.

Maybe I can take dance lessons and get some grace after a few more pounds are gone!!!!
