Now besides a hurt big toe I wasted a lot of time lyingon anarrow meta ed in ER waiting for two hours to be taken back home I could have had breakfast and mylotted. But have the rest of the day just glad I did not get hurt a lot worse.My new mattress slide under me in my sleep and waking up to drink some water I reached too far, lost my balance and fell with my right foot turned' under me. I feel okay now as I had another pain pill at lunch but now I will have a blasted 150 dollar copay on the ambulance' t;r;ip. but I had nothing to stop the kind of pain my toe was giving me so thought I needed it x rayed.Sorry about that long sentence.

That's not fair. Did you talk to the administration about the fact that your mattress slides? Does not sound right. I hope that your meds will help you to sleep okay tonight. Thinking of you.

@Hatley Crikey that must be very shiny plastic. Can´t you get them to put some material in between to stop it sliding so much? I would protest all I can. Hope you are much better now and your toe is okay as well.

Oh dear. You take care, dear Patsie. I once fell on my arm and shoulder and wow it felt busted. Had X rays done at the ER: just a very very deep contusion. I couldn't move that arm away from my stomach for three days. I hope you get some rest.
