Another Bad Fall and damages taken

Submitted by Candlewitch on Tue, 2022-11-01 16:58

yesterday after showering, while getting out of the unit, my foot slid on a slippery spot on its floor. I was holding onto the grab bar, but my hand was wet, so I fell and in the process did damage to both hands and both knees (which were replaced) the back of my left hand is worst it has a very deep bruise mostly covering it. and the pinky might be either sprained or broken. paramedics were called and they helped me to get up and to my bed. sorry about not feeling up to posting of poetry or being on line.

*hugs to all who read this, Cat

Oh no!

That’s terrible I also wish you a speedy recovery. Why don’t you message me when you feel up to it. I understand the hands must be in pain and this may not be entirely possible. I’ll leave you something in your inbox to read.

Let’s get you feeling yourself again.
Your dear friend,

thank you everyone...

for your kind thoughts, they are much appreciated. my left hands pinkie finger and ring finger are the worst. it hurts terribly to bend them so I am a one handed typist. i've got a medi-van scheduled to take me in for ex-rays tomorrow morning. I think that hand came down on the toilet paper dispenser and the right hand collided with the porcelain of the toilet. Steven tried to break my fall resulting in other bruises and personal damage to him. I feel like I am another statistic in bad bathroom horror stories.
