The falling really frustrates me as well. I have had some very public falls when this all started, one at the grocery store and one at the doctors office. The rest luckily have been at home. I am 62 this November and could not believe I could not get up. I have finally taught myself using my arms to back up against a low chair and use my arms to get myself up in the chair. I crawl too when I fall. I have gone to just having flowers in pots on the front porch. So glad we connected. Lynn
