So sorry to hear about your leg ...Dear Chance,<br /> So sorry to hear about your leg problems. Growing old is not for the faint of heart! I am having the same problems especially when I have been laying down for awhile. I have a really hard time getting up from the linoleum floors! Mom hates the carpeting but for me it helps give me some traction. Annie has back problems and by the end of the day she is having troubles getting up the steps but we manage. Mom says she will get the ramp out if we need it which we don't like but may have to resort to in the future. I have fallen a few times but mostly from that darn ramp...I don't like it! Hang tough my friend!Sam I Am......https://www.blogger.com/profile/17358633233189452832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-67876196302032959242017-07-28T08:10:47.778-05:002017-07-28T08:10:47.778-05:00Oh Chance....I hope your leg gets better.
