I always warn my better half here at home. Please be so very careful around the house and outside. We seniors are susceptible to falls, and if that happens seriously enough it can be life-changing.

Case in point, the news several days ago. Ivana Trump dies supposedly after a fall down the stairs at home. And to top it off, she was 73. That’s both of our ages. Yikes.

Funny, about ten days ago I updated our Roman shower area. There was simply too much walking between the corner of the shower where there is a diagonal seating and the exit area where the towel is hanging. I thought “oh oh” here’s a potential fall area. So I installed a new 3’ long grab bar on the wall there. Better safe than sorry.

I know it’s easy to get paranoid over this stuff. But one unfortunate fall folks, and who knows how that may impact the rest of your, and your partner’s life.
