Thanks for posting that, Ms.B. Good to hear Rusty is ok, but sorry for all of her issues.
I am petrified of falling as well. I’ve fallen a couple of times and it’s not easy to get up, mostly because you can’t go onto your knees if you’ve had knee replacements. Pretty tough to maneuver into a standing position without getting on your knees first!
Greetings to Rusty, in case she can read the thread! Miss you!
Grrrrr!!!! I am so mad. The other day the backdoor neighbors complained about one of the branches from my Blue Arrow bushes behind my pond was pushing on their fense. So I hired someone to come and cut it off at the cost of $196.
Now today I hear buzzing, buzzing and go out and find they are cutting off the backside of my Arbovitas because they HANG over the fense. Those weren’t bothering them in the least as the man a few years ago cut some lower branches so his head didn’t hit them. ( I guess he’s taller then six feet as that is how high the fense is. ) Now they can SEE through them into my bedroom if I have a light on. Grrrrr!!!!!
I too have a keen awareness of “FEAR OF FALLINGl” due to osteoporosis and the complications involved with broken hip. That is why I stopped biking- an activity I dearly loved. In serious road and trail riding it’s NOT a matter of “If I will fall?” but how often and how serious. My body is a road map - the results on many incidents
MsB you are fortunate you were young when you broke that hip Add 15 years and as you well know broken hips in Elderly and throwing a clot are busom buddies
Busy day ahead. Will quickly check news and sign off
Wont be pinging list this week until New Thread
