Guest guest Posted October 9, 2004 Report Share Posted October 9, 2004 I tripped over a stroller at the mall a few years ago. I had 2 drinks in my hand, was taking one to my mom. The drinks went one way and I hit the floor so hard it took me a few seconds to know what had happened. When I did I was sooooo embarrassed. People wanting to help...me wanting to disappear. I hope you feel better in a little while. If not, go to the ER. Knees are a terrible thing to waste. Get better.
