I went to the CVS today to pick up a script for the wife. While stepping up onto the curb, I made a misstep and lost my balance. I tumbled forward and had a hard fall. I braced myself with my hands and as best as I can guess, I sprained my wrists. They are very painful. I can still move them, but with a lot of pain. Nothing broken I believe. I also hit hard on my right knee. I am glad I had my jeans on or it would have been much worse. As it is, I have three spots about postage stamp size that are now missing skin. Between us, we are a pitiful lot. HA! It could have been much worse. I can only bend my hands back about 15-20 degrees without pain. It feels like I have some swelling at the joints. I am icing both wrists and taking Aleve. I may even go to the doctor today. I would appreciate your prayers for us. Thanks.
Prayers for sure, Jim. Heal up fast and thank Goodness there are only sprains and abrasions to deal with. Rest up! Doctor's orders!
Didn’t you just recently cut the end of your finger off? Maybe you could start wearing some padding if you’re not going to attend the safety meetings.
LOL I shouldn't laugh... but a week or so ago I fixed the bike up and took it for a spin. When they say you never forget how to ride a bike; they lie.
