I was standing, still, not shifting weight, and both legs gave out at the same time. I went straight down on my butt and pulled every tendon, muscle in thighs, calfs, knees and ankles. I heard a crack as I went down so I thought I broke at least one bone. But, x-rays just say sprains. Dang, it hurt worse than breaks. The tough part, was it was both legs, so no way to walk or get up so I stayed in bed. I couldn't even move my black and blue toes or ankles in bed or even lift my leg in bed. I don't wish this on anyone. But, lots of ice, heating pads, pain meds, bed exercises, and a walker and I am now scooting around, carefully. I see others on the QB are suffering too....I guess on any given day, one of us is seriously hurting, due to the average age of quilters. LOL. Keeping all of you in my prayers and I wish you well! The birthday cards sure do cheer me up. Thanks, Ladies.
