Staggy falls over

[Staggy1]

All you can do is giggle.... I was hanging out a pillowcase on the washing line yesterday it was so windy here I lost my balance and fell backwards into the washing basket - it took me 3 attempts to get out! :-))

[Jennyoleary]

That happens to me I look drunk some times without the pleasure. My balance is rubbish at times

[Staggy1 in reply to Jennyoleary]

It just took me by surprise - sometimes it takes me a lot of effort to look like you're walking steadily. Hey ho...

[wobblybee in reply to Staggy1]

Despite having some scary falls, I've also had some that must have been comical to see😉 xB

[Staggy1 in reply to Jennyoleary]

Have a glass (or if you're me, a tall tumbler!) of Prosecco other wines can make me well unsteady but Prosecco is OK for me...!

[judithrolfe2 in reply to Staggy1]

That's good to know! Will try it.😊😊

Me too actually feel completely drunk minus the "Happy Hour" I had given up drink for months but had two glasses last night I had no seizures and had a fun night it's not going to be a regular thing at all the bottle got knocked over by me minus the lid and I could Finnish the second glass(If anything it improved my mood.So that's a possitive thing for special occasions nothing in the near future until the end of June my Mums Birthday which I had arranged last year and was absent from(in hospital unaware it had been and gone so yes June 29 th she will be 71!!Years younger mius the years of stress that I have aged her(which would equate to over 100 so pretty good going for a century a letter from the queen🤣or has my memory gone completely???

I could have got £250 if it had been caught on camera! XoX

Funny! I've lost my balance and fell over, too. Just as long as we are not hurt! Having a hard time getting out of a basket, would not have been funny, at the time though! Having a good sense of humor is good when one has to deal with Ataxia! Thanks for sharing!

[Staggy1 in reply to ddmagee1]

No I didn't get hurt but all we can do is laugh at it later. You just have to keep going with this stupid disease. Although I wish I was able to bob up and down when gardening! 😉

Dear Staggy 1

that is funny, what a blessing, it would possibly never happen to a non ataxian and so they would miss a good opportunity to have a good laugh. We should enjoy the funny moments life throws our way. Keep seeing the silver lining around each dark cloud.

Best wishes

Isabel

I had a go with a turbo jet washer and I ended up flat on my back !!!!!

[wobblybee in reply to bevvick1964]

Oh to be a fly on the wall😉xB

[Staggy1 in reply to bevvick1964]

Tee hee - so long as you didn't hurt yourself. I've got patio slabs to do I think I'll get the husband to do them..... x

So glad I'm not alone - I lose my balance three or four times every day although fortunately I mostly catch myself before I hit the floor.

Like you I'm blessed with the ability (or whatever it is) to laugh in response which makes sturdy a difference. And then I call for help 🤠

[Staggy1 in reply to Wyndham]

That's all we can do is giggle.... I'm partial to a glass or two of prosecco and I drink it at home because it makes me well wobbly - hey ho!! 😁

[Veteran250]

Ha ha ha ha lol. Xxx

[Staggy1]

It's funny looking back at the event! 😆
