Being me is SO much fun!

[Otto99]

So in the wee small hours of Tuesday morning, I had to make a trip to the necessary. Still sleeping in the chair, so I pushed my stool out of the way to get up. Or so I thought. Seems I didn’t allow clearance enough (it was dark and the eye’s not fully back yet), tripped on the stool, and like a mighty oak, hit the floor hard. Broke my clavicle/collarbone. So now I’m in a sling and have to keep it as still as I can. This summer has pretty much sucked so far.

 

[Darkness]

Oh man. Hope you heal well and soon.

 

[BGood]

Ouch !

 

[Digger]

I’m so sorry Greg!

Life can be a bitch at times, thats for sure!

I have a torch by the bed so if I have to move at night I can without fear of tripping over the dog and breaking something. That doesn’t help you a bit unfortunately. All I can offer is a quick recovery and my continuing well wishes.

Sorry mate!

Oh! No, Sorry to hear of your fall Greg, that sounds painful & pretty much restricts you doing most things.
Hope it's not going to be too long before you're back to good health.

I'm so sorry to hear that Otto.
That really sucks!
I hope you heal fast and strong and can get back into things promptly.

I broke my Clavicle twice in a single Mt Bike season and it's so lumpy I have to have my backpack straps different lengths.

I'll be keeping an interested eye on your progress ...

I end up playing within myself, clear pathways to the bathroom & when something is percolating I waste no time in making that move to sit on the throne to rule the castle. Just not worth the accidental fall or risk of soiling. I've got nowhere to be in that situation beyond taking care of business, so I take care of the warning sign when the dashboard light comes on. Anything that would wake me up out of a sound sleep is an immediate service requirement. My body wasn't asking me if I wanted to or not. It's just the realities of old age. It's bodily, toxic waste, there's no percentage in carrying that load any longer than it has to be in there.

I'm sorry to hear about your broken clavicle from the accident. It's important to follow medical advice and keep your shoulder still to aid in healing. Wishing you a quick and smooth recovery during this challenging time.
