I’ve taken some falls while attempting to do things that were not carefully thought through.
But July 8th 2022 I was just walking to my car while conversing & my right leg went out from under me. I fell hard on my right shoulder and cracked the top of my humerus. It was horribly painful and it wasn’t until October 4th 2022 that I was able to finally get a reverse shoulder replacement as that fracture was never going to heal.
I had a spine fusion in 16’ and while that fall didn’t disrupt the fusion, I began to experience sciatica pain down my buttocks into my legs. Im in Rehab again and use creams and patches on the source of the pain but I almost always wear supportive footwear and pay closer attention to the where I'm walking. I was a gymnast in my youth and very strong so accepting the fact that my body is not able to function or respond like it used to is a fact I’m learning to deal with. It’s not easy. I’m 76. My goal is to NOT break any more bones!
