Lurell, please don't fret, I probably did hear from you but my brain wasn't as good as it should have been. I fell in a parking lot just going into a cafe to have the usual coffee group with Jim's HS pals end of Oct. I fell flat on my face, hard, really hard. Long story short, lots of bruises on my face, only broken bone was under one eye. It is one of 3 in my cheek. My knee was the worse, took 11 weeks to heal, took a big chunk of flesh out and it was filled with rocks and leaves.So blessed that I didn"t break a hip, actually my face on the left side and my right knee took the force of the fall.

I found out thru all of this that I am not as strong as I think I am. In my mind I think I can handle what ever comes along but I sure found out with this fall that I was so lacking in adjusting to what had happened to me . It seemed like I was always trying to do things for others or for Jim here at home and I just couldn't, it was like hitting a wall. Took me quite a few times to realize I just needed time to heal. Had to see 4 different Drs and they all told me the same time that I had to accept the fact that my injuries were going to take time to heal. Jim was so great to do over and above what needed to be done to help but he always has, he never complained except for me to slow down. I guess my knee will stay a little sore, especially with the weather changes.
