As most of you know just a week ago a passed a 1 cm kidney stone after suffering for over 3 weeks with it. Well yesterday morning we(hubby & I) went to the post office to pay bills. It was raining out. He parked the car and I went to go inside. I step onto the sidewalk and proceed towards the door which is maybe 75 feet from the car. On the sidewalk there is a metal grate. The sidewalk is on a slight grade. (See where I am going with this?) I step on the grate not knowing it is like stepping on slick ice and slip sideways. I crash down hitting first my hip & thigh then twisting a little to catch myself my elbow, both hands and finally my right shoulder(which took almost all the impact). Come to find out my shoulder was dislocated and I have sever muscular bruising to my hip & thigh as well as my arm muscles as well as quite a nasty concrete burn on my elbow and lower arm. Woohoo...god I wish October was over so I can get a better start on November.

Please send some good thoughts that my string of bad luck ends and I can go without pain for awhile. I am still in big time pain with my shoulder and the muscular damage. Thanks a bunch
