I’M sill recovering from my 2017 fall. Compound fracture of the right humorous, fractured L 5, S1,S2, S3, broken pelvis in 3 places, broken pubic bone, and sacrum fractured in 3 places.Had 2 surgeries and was in the hospital for 6 weeks, in a wheelchair for a total of 5 months, a walker for 3 months, a cane for 2 months, and I can now walk without assistance.I’ve been in and out of PT since the fall. I am full of hardware plates and screws two long screws that crisscross in my pelvis. Wouldn’t be here if I didn’t get to my phone to get help. This was from a 12 foot fall.
