[QUOTE="Star*, post: 97599, member: 4964"] Susie, I am baring a little bit of my soul here for the sake of your sanity. I am 43. I am a life long, off-balance(don't say it), klutz. I'm not prone to seizures, I'm not a medicine induced faller, I'm not distracted, I'm not sick (don't say it) - I am a bonafide klutz. I danced classical ballet since I can't remember. My Mother sitting in the hall of the dance studio met a new mother excited over the prospect of her daughter being a ballerina. She watched me dance, looked at my mother and said "She's so graceful, did ballet make her that way?" and my Mother said "Ballet made her fall more gracefully." THAT is the truth. I can swan dance out of most imbalances. You would think at my age that I had palsy of some kind. I drop things, I can't hold things, I bend over to get them, I hit my head. I've just accepted that I am off balance(do not say it). As I've gotten older? It's a little less, but if someone is going to fall at an event it could be me. I fall off clog shoes. I have lax ankles so I chalk it up to genetics. Maybe its (hopefully it's) nothing. Deep thinking people - can ONLY do so many things at a time. I don't and never will talk on a cell phone in a car for the simple reason I'm not that mature. Hope this helps soothe your nerves. I'm sorry she fell - hope she's okay Star [/QUOTE]
