So, I turned 56. Now what? Well you fall in the bathtub and create an enormous amount of pain for your already aching back. I hit my tailbone hard on the bathtub and hit my head on the faucet. I know all these little things equate to “growing old” but I don’t know how they just seem to start happening with no warning.

Several years ago I fell and broke my leg. Just fell right off a set of bleachers. I injured my back then but we didn’t know it. I felt the repercussions of that in 2023 when I had to have an emergency back surgery. But really, since that original fall, things have escalated quick. I suppose I’m going to have to go to the doctor because I’ve spent the better part of the day with dizzy spells. Up, down, just hanging out…..doesn’t matter much, I just get all kind of whooshy in the head.

I would love to see what you guys have experienced and if you think it is a factor of your age or something else?
