I'm glad you had a lovely time with your family.  Sorry about the fall though x

I am scunnered as they say.

It sounds as if you had a great day Beanie - lovely celebrations 👍
Sorry that you fell again….do you need different aids that are more sturdy or a purple pimped up chair………(whispered that last bit very quietly and runs out of the room in fear of Beanies wrath😰😳😉……)

Also glad you had a good time and sorry to hear about the fall.  Hope you are recovering ok.  And that somewhere later this month will turn up with a discount on something that gets you a change from beans!

laqlala.....
It was under the bridges so it is lovely.
There would have not been room for a chair.

Believe it or not there have been a few thoughts & discussions about where to go from here.
The answer is no where.

As long as solutions ARE being discussed Beanie - it so often seems to happen that regular reviews of situations like yours fail to happen and the person concerned is left not getting the help they need. I'm glad that's not happening in your case, even if there currently isn't a good solution to the problem. 

Glad you had a lovely day and celebrations!

It’s the same with Mr SA, he’s had several referrals to the falls team but there isn’t really a solution to his falls. They can suggest walking aids and safety/awareness measures but they can’t stop him falling it’s just one of those things.

I knew you’d have been thinking of solutions Beanie…even if the solution is there isn’t one…..can i creep back in the room then hoping I’ve not overstepped the mark 🤞 😉😏😁
I was thinking of you and miss Summer this morning. I’ve sort of become protector to next doors cat 😂😂 it is now a year old and has spent the last 6 months plodding very wearily along the fences. I’ve had to go out and scatter a handful of pebbles towards cats that have been worrying her several times. Anyway this morning she was in our garden trying to stand her ground with Rupert- a rather handsome Ginger Tom……I chased Rupert off but Nuala - next doors cat was I a real state. The first time I’ve seen her off the fence, other than in her own garden. I presume she fell off 😵‍💫😵‍💫 She spent an hour in the garden wondering how to get back on the fence…she really is the thickest cat I’ve ever come across.😂😂😂 She hissed if I approached her to lift her up, but quite happily let me tickle her head. I ended up putting  a chair next to the fence for her to get up….it’s only a 4 ft fence so not high for a cat. She did eventually figure it out by climbing on the fence and went back to the comfort of her own garden 😁 All the other cats of the neighbourhood use some stones that make the waterfall up…..she’s seen them loads of time but didn’t have a clue. Bet Miss S has more of an idea than Nuala 🤔

 Your family lunch sounded just the ticket beanie though I'm sorry to hear of your recent fall.

Today I cried in the foodbank.
The shame.
