The above disappeared before I finished; One dog said "I am to be put down for biting my owner! The second a Bullmastiff said "I savaged a poodle and I am being put down! They asked the Great Dane "what are you in for?" The Great Dane replied " when my misters came out of the shower and bent over to dry her feet, I could not miss the opportunity to give her one, Doggy style." The two other dogs at the same time "So you are being put down too?" The Great Dane said "No way, I am here to get my nails clipped. Viva La Vet!!"

lt sounds like you had a nasty fall but luckily you managed to get up this time but what if it happens again God forbid and you can't. Do you have friends around to keep you company? Are you on a government package ? They have men and women who will come to clean and do anything else you need help with.
Sorry l'm being a busy body but l am worried about you and you shouldn't be on your own.
My sister in Sydney fell last year when she went to feed her pugs and couldn't get up. She was there overnight and the next day before her daughter Jo went to see her and she died. Jo had security cameras and if she had bothered to look she would have seen her. l'm afraid l am very bitter about it and she's not speaking to us all. l live in Hobart so l was nowhere near her.lf you live there let me know
 
To begin with I am sorry to hear of your Mothers loss. I live in Adelaid and always wear my Disabillity Pendant. at night this is in hand reach at the side of the bed I do not Know your mothers age but why no Pendant? If you was relying upon the cameras unfortunately they turned out useless. When I press my emergency button it rings my Daughter If she does not answer in 10 seconds it rings my grandson and if he dose not answer it rings my son in Canberra, if no answer it switches through to ambulance service, if I fell in the Street it would show my position on the map, If I remember rightly it cost $460 a small price to pay for the security it provides.
