That is exactly why we are downsizing and moving to a little place with no stairs. Or can you move your sleeping area to the first floor? Do you have osteoporosis? I am close to 76 now. Fell down and broke my shoulder 2 years ago the doc told me pets, stairs, throw rugs and electric cords were the greatest risks. Do you have one of those bracelets/necklaces with a notification button if you fall. Make sure you are exercising and building strength. Take care.
