I just wanted to chime in that "it can happen to any of us". I would not consider myself to have any mobility challenges, but a couple of weeks ago I bent over to pick up the mail from the floor, and suddenly I was falling backward with nothing to grab. I landed full-force on my "dupa" and though it was a shock I was able to get right up. The surprising part was that for DAYS later I felt like I'd been in a car wreck! If I were less mobile, with my jolly physique, they'd have to send more than a firetruck they'd need a cattle hoist!
