I fell again
Last night after cleaning up the kitchen, I turned to walk out and at the same time noticed a burner still on so I turned around, too fast, I lost my balance and fell on my back. I was stunned for a few minutes but I didn`t think I had hurt myself. Andre heard me and came to help. I had so many falls the last 27 years but luckily never hurt myself. Lately, my knees hurt with arthritis so getting up from the floor is a lot harder than it used to be. After several tries, I could not get up and losing energy with every try. Andre wanted to help me. I always say no to help because I am afraid people will hurt their backs helping me but I really did need help. Andre went behind me and holding me under my arms, lifted me and wait for it. he lost his footing and we both landed on the floor again with me on top of him. We couldn`t help it we both started to laugh. Ok, so we tried something else. He pushed a dining room chair close to me and held it firmly while I got myself up. Yay!! we did it. I was a little sore but I did it. This morning I am sore all over and I have a very nice bruise to show off. I have to stop falling, it is getting too hard to get back up again.
