I'm sorry about your slip and fall. This same kind of thing happened to me in November of 2020. 911 sent a few very helpful people out who advised me that the hospital was super busy and that taking my own car was probably the best route for me medically because there was a waiting list for the ambulances and they thought I would have to pay the full charge. My wife ended up driving me. I can see the hospital from my house.

I think the best advice I could give to anyone who reads this post is Prevent, Prevent, Prevent, the fall. It was an accident and it was a life-changing event. Old comfortable shoes are the main culprit combined with a little spritz of rain.

Feel better VT. You are one of my favorite posters and have helped me so many times. I wish I could do something for you now. I'm still a little jammed up myself.
