Being disabled, I sit at home and try to do what I can here to make our, the wife and I, lives as easy as possible. The wife stills works, she has a little over 1 1/2 years until she retires. I always go to the door when she leaves and returns to open it for her and welcome her home or to give her a goodbye kiss and tell her to hurry home, I love you. You guys know the drill.
Anyway, yesterday afternoon, when she got home, I went and opened the door and as she entered, she took a bad step and started to fall and the only way I could help was to step between her and the door jam which is a metal jam for the sliding glass door. Our combined weight fell against my wrist which was against the jam with my palm turned inwards.
My wrist is now very painful, nothing feels broken, but it is very sore and bruised. It just blows my mind how something that I wouldn't have noticed several years ago, now can almost cripple me.
Posting will be lighter than usual until the wrist feels better. It took me all of 10 minutes just to type this out one (left) handed.
Take care. Karl.
Very sorry to read that news.
