I completely understand how you feel. I was born with congenital hip dysplaysia that was never corrected, so I now have to eventually have surgery. While living in France for two years, there were a lot of stairs in my daily life. Our house had three flights. The stairs there are short in depth,and wood(very slippery) I kept telling the girls not to wear socks. One day I was at the top of the stairs(wearing socks) and I fell like a ton of bricks on my bad hip side. The sheer physics involved was something else. I had a bruise on my upper thigh the size of a dessert plate. It was so deep that it didn't go away for about two years!! I also fell in a museum there too. I grabbed onto the rail,but it didn't help!! Those two incidents have really scared me!Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02026706261655333994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6364541101628562065.post-78289328669657087782008-06-19T11:56:00.000-04:002008-06-19T11:56:00.000-04:00Oh no!!

Yes, I understand ...OMG, is Mercury in retrograde?? Yes, I understand completely. After I had surgery last summer, I was in mortal fear of the shower. My husband had to put a chair in it and BATHE ME for the first day home. I never felt more like a loser in my life. Not at least until my incision was infected and I didn't know that a golfball under the incision was something to be alarmed about, and it "resolved" in the shower, whence I ran out naked screaming, much to my younger sister's delight.<BR/><BR/>Well, what's the alternative, right?
