Sorry, I didn't see this report earlier. The goddesses cannot allow another Peg to end up seriously injured. This Peg will send the goddesses a very stern note to get on the ball!

Wishing you a speedy recovery and hospital release, Peg.

I am indeed at home, as of this late afternoon!

I have a couple of sore places where I hit my garage floor, but mainly I'm OK. The doctors saw no reason for me to stay any longer.

I was a bit wobbly on my feet at first on coming home, but moving around has truly helped my balance and my self-confidence.

I have read every post, and will continue to do that, as long as I can!

I love you all!

I know this goes without saying, but if you have shoes that give you the slightest sense of instability, it’s time to toss them. My podiatrist reminds me of this a lot.

My mom and I bought the same pair of sandals on a shopping outing, and she told me she is realizing they have a looseness on her that makes her uneasy. New, but not safe, so they’re finding a new home.

So glad you’re home. 😍

Had they found a systemic cause, they would be keeping her longer. I fell in 2023 - the fall didn't even hurt, but all my limbs were so weak I just couldn't get up (and I'm usually very good at getting up, whether it's from a fall or just doing something on the floor) - and they kept me over a week and only released me to Rehab, which kept me another week. I'm doing much better now.
