You faired much better than I. In fact I had just got done telling my husband not to worry so much, that there wasn't even enough room in our bathroom for me to fall, and of course you all know the story, I not only fell, but I fractured my ankle bones, resulting in surgery and plates, screws and pins-since TM I have fractured or broken 6 bones!
I am very careful now, and they don't know why my bones are so easily snapped, especially since they say I haven't been on the pred long enough for that to have an effect.
Glad you got off with only a bruised ego, but on the flip side you have another humorous TM story to share!
Thanks for the grins,

I fell out of the wheel chair again. I am beginning to think I don't belong in one of these things.Ha! Ha! This time I was in the bathroom getting ready to transfer to the shower chair. I was not transferring. I was just sitting in my chair and had grabbed the remote to turn on the TV to watch while taking a shower. It happened so quit I am not real sure what happened other than I landed in the floor. I think I had a spasm in both legs and maybe my back or abdomen. I think my legs and body just had a spasm and my legs straightened forward causing me to slide forward and the wheelchair to tip forward causing me to slide out and down to the floor. I landed on my bottom with my legs crossed in front of me. No body damage or bruises or anything. Just my pride was hurt. My son came over and scooped me up and on to the bed. We checked the wheelchair and nothing had came loose or anything wrong that we could find. I guess I just need to be more
careful.......Cody in Austin
