I've fallen down the stairs several times these past few years. But, I count my blessings I'm able to go down the stairs. My hips are constantly bruised where I fall into things, but I am so lucky I am walking there in the first place. My PT gets aggrevated at me for doing too much, and my insurance company thinks I should do more. I'm not to good at decisions, friends. Chiropractors have been the ones who have given me the most relief, too.

I was trying a new short cut, going from standing with my walker to straight to the floor without sitting in a chair first & then going down to the floor. So don't try this at home or anywhere else. lol I let my chiropractor know that my left shoulder blade was hurting, so he followed that point to my spine and snapped back in one of my ribs. This was a week before Christmas, so it did make for a great Christmas gift. So please be very safe everyone, Todd in CC,TX --- On Thu, 12/30/10, wim from holland <wim_from_holl...@hotmail.com> wrote: From: wim from holland <wim_from_holl...@hotmail.com> Subject: RE: [TMIC] To: jan...@centurytel.net, "TMIC" <tmic-list@eskimo.com> Date: Thursday, December 30, 2010, 7:31 AM Janice Normaly I could say, just fine, not better or worse. After all this time it was very study. But last summer I overstreched my hamstrings by a fall. A very stupid one, sitting on the bed I reached too far for clothes on the floor and slide from the bed. I jused after that time my wheelchair all the day, because standing and walking with crutches was too painfull. Now after recovering, it is hard to get back to what I could do before. I hope in summer when we go to Spain I can get it back in the warm sun and dayly in the swimming pool.

How are you doing – besides learning to be grandparents. Janice From: wim from holland Sent: Monday, December 27, 2010 9:03 AM To: TMIC Subject: [TMIC] Gelukkig Nieuwjaar!! Happy new year everybody, hopefully this will be the year that makes an end to TM, and if not, don't give up hope and keep the head up. Last two years were very strange. We become grandparents, but we also became orphans this year. Next year our second grand child will be born. Wim from Holland.
