It’s strange how problems look different once you have several chronic issues. Falling down is a big deal when your health goes south. Just getting up may require my husband’s help.
I want to encourage people to be honest with themselves when it comes to mobility. Mobility issues can change daily and we have to assess each day.
This painful rash and bruise is from falling while playing with dogs. I reached for the toy and went straight down. It’s a small thing until it’s a Big Problem, concussion, or injury that needs attention like when I fell halfway downstairs and broke my wrist.
I met my new PCP yesterday and she pressured me to use an aid in the house, which is nothing new to hear. I still haven’t faced the music and still will not use one. The day will come when I will need an aid. 😦
At 60, there are many days I feel like I’m falling apart but I have to stay focused on the next day and stay positive about tomorrow. 🙂

I can understand your resistance to using an aid, and would think, I’ll be more careful. But I’ve seen some cool looking canes and think of a walking stick or staff like Gandalf has in the Lord of the Rings. That’s what I’m going for if I even need an aid. I hope your ouch heals well and quickly.
My bruises are ok, it’s the starting my infusions next week and my cognitive decline. 🙂
I’m praying for your comfort, strength, good moments and good days ahead.
Thank you, I need all the prayers I can get. Thursday is coming fast!
Oooh. Ouch 🥺 Sure do hope you make a full recovery🙏🙏
Thank you for the kind words, I’ll be ok. This was a small fall compared to some others. I hope you’re doing well and have a great day. 🙂
You’re welcome Sweetheart. Take care. 🙏🙏
God bless your weekend with good rest and quick healing🙏🏻.
Thank you so much for the kind words. I may feel side effects for a couple of days after treatments, but I’m not sure yet.Have a great day. 🙂
ouch that looks so sore … take care 💜💜
Only when I touch it.
Oh no! Take care of yourself. I can fully relate to not always being honest with myself about what I’m capable of. It’s a tough balance.
We all do until something changes our mind! 🙂
Ouch. Take care and I hope you are not too sore from your fall.
It’s ok until you touch it! 🙂
Ouch. I hope it calms down for you soon.
