How do you feel about falling?

I think about a first floor bedroom as well. I think we could convert our living room. Problem is we only have a half bath downstairs.
I have read that there is an uside to having stairs. It forces you to keep some strength in your legs. I keep telling myself that.🙂
As for creating a first floor bedroom and bath--we recently remodeled our kitchen. Not sure I want to go thru that again. It's not easy living in a construction zone. Maybe someday.

We had a stair lift installed last year. Prices range from $ 4,000 - 7,000. It was worth it to us...cheaper than a remodel and I feel safer.

Hi I was on before about tkr 2 years ago. Now I have fallen may 23 and smashed my femur in same leg as tkr. My leg was put back together. Bone growth didn't grow. Nothing to grow now. Dr wants to operate now and remove plate and clean leg out and do revision surgery on knee. Put all metal and cement in knee
A rod in my leg. I can't walk good even with a walker. Dr thinks I will with this surgery. Anyone heard or experienced this? Any advice? Kinda on my own with all this and afraid. Thanks.
