A Personal Update For Those Who May Be Interested

It has been nearly three months since I had a bad fall in my basement* and broke my left hip and forearm. After two operations and a five week stay in a local rehabilitation facility I thought it time for a brief journal update.
Thus far my treatment personnel have not discussed  the reasons underlying my fall. I suspect it may be due to my age(84), my PCa and my PCa medications.
 It is also unknown how complete my recovery might be. My personal goal is to navigate without the
use of a wheelchair,walker or cane. Whether or not I will ever return to (1) daily visits to see my beloved wife who resides in an Assisted Living Facility or (2) tri-weekly Pickle Ball excursions remains to be seen.
*Think in terms of a cement flooring.
Stay tuned.

Don, What on earth happened to you? Sure am sorry to hear what you are going through. Sounds like the worst is behind you....at least I hope so.

I have no idea if this message will get to you or not so will cut it short and see if you respond to it. Andy

Might be best to use my email...……………..
