Fall

She knew that she had fallen again.

That’s all she knew for sure. Maybe it was the painkillers that the paramedics had given her. There was a lot of pain when they answered her call. One of them said it could be her hip, but he wasn’t sure. The ambulance seemed to be going very fast. The attendant sitting next to her was filling out a form. They had both been very nice. She began to feel drowsy again. She was rocking about on the bed. She had been thinking about things recently. Life was changing for her. She was on her own. That was her life now. From the time her cat died and it was decided, by somebody, that she shouldn’t take on the responsibility of owning another one. That had made her very sad. She could remember that. She wondered who it was that had said that. Was it the vet? She couldn’t remember. There was so much that she couldn’t remember.

She sighed softly to herself. None of the children know where I am right now, she thought. It was amazing that they should all live so far away…

The ambulance came to a halt. Things would be on the move again.

It was nice to just spend time thinking about things, she thought. Maybe it was the painkillers.

As the doors swung open, she thought, I hope my hip’s all right…

  2. Hey there! I could have sworn I’ve been to this blog before but after checking through some of the post I realized it’s new to me. Anyways, I’m definitely delighted I found it and I’ll be bookmarking and checking back often!

  3. I was wondering if you ever considered changing the structure of your site? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or two pictures. Maybe you could space it out better?

  4. I haven?¦t checked in here for some time because I thought it was getting boring, but the last several posts are great quality so I guess I will add you back to my daily bloglist. You deserve it my friend 🙂
