Help , I've Fallen And Can't Get Up

Yesterday the 27th of August I got up walked over to my front door . Turned around and Yes . My knee buckled and i fell all 6 feet of me to the floor . Had to call 911 for help once again . This time i fell on my left shoulder . Now it is bruised and turning blue . I also heard me knee pop as i went down . Now it is bruised more and sore as heck . I may have to be put in a home to heal or die which ever comes first . I'm trying to laugh about it but It hurts . Not giving up . May not be on line much till some soreness goes away . Love you folks . Check in when i can , Wayne

Take care Wayne.

Look at the bright side as you lay in bed.....you have nowhere to go but up.

Wayne please take care of yourself.  I am so sorry you fell,just take it easy and keep in touch.

Wayne, maybe a facility is the best.  Maybe they will help you so that your knees won't buckle anymore.  Good luck, my friend, and heal quickly.

My Doctor is looking into putting me in a reliability Home to get healed up . Right now i can get off bed . I really swelled up this time . I i go somewhere to get healed i may have to give my cat up . I hate that ...

Might be time for a wheel chair at home until your knees heal.

So sorry to hear this Wayne, I know no one wants to leave their home as long as you're able to stay in it. Maybe look into a motor chair and also a wheel chair. Install grab bars where you need them also.

I am so sorry, Wayne.  Please take good care of yourself, and get better.  Take a suggestion or two from those offered here, and do what you can to stay at home; that way you can keep your cat, and you won't lose your independence. But if a little time in a nursing facility is what you need, maybe you should consider it.  Whatever you do....don't forget to check in and let us know how you are, or we'll worry.

I will keep you in my prayers, Wayne.
