Tripped yesterday. Did a good job of it. Three fingers severely sprained on my right hand. One bent backwards so far it split the skin in 2 places & took 10 stitches to hold it back together. Could see the tendons really well. Looks like I'm on the injoured reserve list fora while.
This getting older ain't for sissies.

Ouch! That sounds like a bucket-load of pain! Hope you heal quickly.

I feel your pain brother... for some reason the older you get the heavier your feet seem to get. Hope you get healed up quick. AND.... don't mess with anything that might get your infected.

ya must learn to NOT put your hand down as most folks do, think ice or roller skating, too, pull your arms in, up agin your body and fall on them folded against you
yes, it takes a new thought process/REACTION, to do this fast, on the way down.
ALSO, think you had a rifle in your hand, you NEVER let it go when falling down in the woods, you protect it and twist sorta, to land on your side.
Heal fast bud!

Hope you heal up soon.
The older I get the more often I hurt myself one way or another. Then it takes longer to heal up as well, is what I have experienced.

Suck it up buttercup. Getting old sucks. When it happens to me, first thing is. I get ready for any pain coming my way and second is finding something to get a hold of to get up. Get well soon. Sarge

Get well soon! You are right - getting older isn't for sissies! X2. Sorry that happened, did to me too the other day but not as bad as you, I just got stove up and a bit (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) lol. Get well.
I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....
