Not a very auspicious start to my 77^th. year.  I managed to fall off the bed, at 5 a.m., banging my head heavily on the floor.  It ‘my lovely’ almost 1 hour to get me up and back into bed, using a series of low chairs and the rising mechanism on the NHS bed No harm done except for a grazed shin.  Later in the day my legs gave way in the hall and again I crashed to the floor.  This time we had to elicit the assistance off to build a working opposite to get me onto my feet again.  I hope that this is not the beginning of the end for my legs and that they were both just freak accidents.
