On holiday in Cornwall last week (earlier hours of Friday morning), it appears I had walked through the caravan door onto the step snd stepped off the steps (not down the steps), falling 4ft to the ground. The pain in my knee instantly awoke me, then was greeted by my husband saying, "Get in quick, you are naked."π³ Needless to say I couldn't get up and needed assistance. I had also cut my heal, presumably on the steps or the concrete slab below. I don't remember anything until the pain in the knee awoke up. This obviously cut my holiday short. The journey home was hellish. A lorry had Jack knifed on the motorway spilling diesel all over the carriage way causing hous of delays. it had taken us almost 11 hours to get home. instead of the 4 and a half to arrive there in the first place. So the after, once I had gotten some sleep, I went to hospital & had xrays etc. The leg is hugely swollen, I have a lot of age related wear & a possible fracture to my knee. I need to return in 1 week. π

So thrilled
