On another note, I fell the other night as I was on my way to bed. My IV stand which has four wheels that all want to go in different directions at the same time, was the culprit that tripped me up. Fortunately I had my cell phone in my pocket so was able to call my daughter as I lay on the floor bleeding profusely from a couple of gashes on my head and she and her partner were here in five minutes. Also scraped up a knee and my shins pretty badly.
My inability to get up after a fall does give me cause for concern. If I hadn't had my phone I could have lain there all night and that prospect scares the hell out of me. I am considering getting one of those alarms that I can wear around my neck when at home and will probably look into it next week.
And finally, my winter chair is in the shop with a broken gearbox. Repairs are complicated by the fact that the chair has been altered to fit my snow tires but I have enlisted the help of Joe from Tetra who has generously agreed to help get it up and running again.
