    Yes. Last September I fell and broke both arms and was unable to get up.

  • Not me personally, but I do remember my Dad falling and having to be picked up. I never could understand how that could be, now I do understand the inevitable for many.

    You fall down?  Then put it DOWN.   Not supposed to happen.

    Literally Yes...More times than I can count due to my CP on my left side and arthritis in my right knee.  In life, when I get knocked down I've always managed to get up, even if it takes a little time.

    Fell backwards off my deck and fractured 4 lower bones.  Couldn't move, no one home. 90 degree heat. Laid there yelling for help for about 20 minutes.  Gratefully my son came over to say hi and found me in the back yard.  I now carry a phone everywhere I go.
