My mom broke her hip at 96, the Doctor pinned it thinking she was to old for a replacement. It started slipping and she had a full hip replacement at 97. They had put a stabilizing rod down the outside of her leg, she did great. A year and a half later she fell, because she was walking without her walker. This time she broke her femur between the rod and her knee . Her surgeon operated on her for almost 5 hours. He said he used a plate on one side and cable to hold the bones together. We put her in an extended care facility and she could not put any weight on that leg for 95 days. 5 days later she came home and used her walker. She passed last August 30, she would have been 101 in November. She never cried over what happened to her, she said what do I need to do. That’s a strong lady, I got to call mom.🙏❤️

I find her perspective fascinating. I broke my leg at the age of 31. The pain was horrible. I won't go into detail but could only get off the couch once a day to go to the restroom. The cast was from my foot to the top of my thigh. After weeks as the cast was slowly cut down and I could bend my knee and sit in a wheelchair I was so greatful. The sheer joy of being able to wheel myself around and wash dishes & care for my family as limited as it was, was wonderful. I was so thankful and actually decided that if I had to spend the rest of my life in a wheel chair i'd be ok. Anything was better than just laying there weeks on end. I had no physical therapy and when the final cast was removed 7 months later I walked out of the Drs. office. I never worried about walking, limping or dancing again. Very interesting.

I knew while using walker the z sandles were catching and I still wore them at the Y. Pay attention to those little warnings. If a pair of shoes is a problem ditch them.

@S Suwandi Yes, “girl.” When I was a girl she was also a girl. Hence, why I referred to her as a girl. Bad day, bubs? Or just an overall nasty person? Most people go about life trying to shine light as they go about the day. You, on the other hand.. are functioning with bitterness. Who is the person that really should he criticized. Me or you?

@S Suwandi I just re-read what you said again. I also noticed that you have very low self-esteem, but you hide this from others and yourself by trying to minimize them. You attempted this by referring to me as, “kiddo.” First, I want to thank you for the compliment. Second, although your attempt to try and make me feel smaller by using a minimizing word, it did not have that affect on me. Quit the opposite, in fact. I immediately knew this has been a coping mechanism for you all of your life. Sadly, this type of minimization was used on you throughout your life and it worked. It worked so well that you decided to employ this on others. The problem with this approach is that the boomerang always come back. Not only that, but you never truly learn to heal from your wounds. Instead, you take that pain and momentarily feel such strength when you load your weapon and release it on unsuspecting people. It feels so good to just lash out and hope the person feels even for a moment the way you feel. If you grow emotionally or get therapy to cope with your pain, you’ll discover that every time you lashed out, you were also being stung. You see, we cannot escape karma. The energy you put out, the universe turns it rack back to you in a multitude of ways. If you want to live a blessed and happy life, first and foremost, be the blessing in others lives and spread love. I hope one day my message finally resonates with you. If not, that’s ok too.

We can FEEL so STRONG like we were in teens, 20's & even mid-30's. The truth about how our bones age...is that after age 40/45..bones become more fragile...falls when you are maybe age 45- beyond are terribly long to recover from ...to heal...and to be somewhat strong afterward. This experience may just be what any of us needs to properly care for our bodies.

Never thought I would walk again or thought I would definitely be walking with a limp. Determination and sticking with my PT helped me make the miracle recovery. Not an easy road for sure. That was in 2009 when I was 62 - I am now 74 and there is nothing that can stop me! God Bless you.

I really appreciate Brooke being willing to share about what happened. Reading some of the comments here is amazing... the level of sharing, compassion and support. When an injury, accident, trauma or illness happens you learn many things. We all take so much for granted that can be quickly taken from us. I learned a lot about resilience, vulnerability, inner strength, dignity, and that being “in control” is an illusion for the most part. After becoming disabled, chronically ill and a chronic pain patient, some people in my life couldn’t hack it and bailed out. Bottom line is I think they didn’t want to face the reality that their life could change against their will in a heartbeat... my presence was too much of a reminder. I understand. Life is different than how I thought it would be but that’s ok. I embrace the changes and in many ways I am all the more enriched. ☮️ 💐

From Massachusetts. What a privilege to write to you. I'm nearly the same age as you Brooke. I remember reading an article about you while you were studying at Yale. You said you were happy to be there to prepare for life after acting. Years later when I saw you in a commercial with your two girls, I thought your whole family must feel so proud of your accomplishments. I believe you're still here to learn from your experiences. This last one was not so fortunate. My heart goes out to you. Sharing is something you do, and I think many blessings will still come your way. I broke my hip thirty three years ago, then I got married and had two children. I got my life back within two years. I'm sure you will walk up those stairs and down again many times over in a couple of years. From now on, stick to the physical therapists and leave the exercise trainers to help other people. You're going to need more tlc than trainers. Maybe think about trying pilates exercises someday on your back with a physical therapist tk guide you when you're ready. Lately, I was carrying gallon jugs of water into the house. Everything went out of whack. I've been down for weeks now. I had lower back pain and soon I discovered I've had a shorter leg from a tilting pelvis for years. It never bothered me until now.I am using a lift in one shoe to give me my posture back. I realized I cannot carry heavy things. That is my other new adjustment. Brooke, I wish healing for you and your family. You have a good chance to function normally again as soon as possible. If one muscle could take a year to heal, then. give your leg and muscles two years. Keep telling your bones and muscles to get better, and they will do what you say. There are some very good supplements for bones, muscles and nerves. Energy medicine may help, as well as prayer to God. I wish you and yours a bright future. Let us know soon how you are. 💓

I had to drag myself back up the steps and inside to call my husband and the ambulance. I laid on my kitchen floor shaking from shock.
