Broken ribs.... Again,

This has been my view pretty much all week, but especially at night. I have been experiencing sme really bad chest pain, having difficulties breathing, and trouble laying down. So, I have been in the recliner chair nonstop and even sleeping in it. I told Dr Rhew about my pain and so we did X-rays... Turns out I have "a few fractures." UGH! No fun. I'm not exactly sure what I did but think it was on Monday when I tried reaching over the toilet hand rales to pick up my pants. Otherwise I'm not sure. I broke my ribs once before when I totally passed out and fell out my front door.they really hurt. We believe that because of my osteoporosis my bones are so brittle that they are breaking more easily. 😩There is nothing you can do for broken ribs except rest, ice and pain meds, so that's what I'm doing and praying they heal up fast! 

Glad my girls like to snuggle"
