When we first started our company, I used to say that falls can be a catastrophic event, but the fear of falling is paralyzing. I said this initially based on the awful stories I heard from clients and others alike. I was really motivated to help prevent more heartbreaking stories about terrible falls and their outcomes. What I did not expect was to personally experience this problem with two of my grandparents.
Last year my 89-year-old grandmother came out of a 10 day hospitalization with severe muscle atrophy and balance issues. Although she has not fallen (at least not that we know of), she did not fully recuperate from her balance issues. Her current lack of stability and weak muscles keep her from enjoying life. She sits most of the day in the living room watching TV and her health is rapidly deteriorating. Her fear of falling is paralyzing her with grave consequences that are affecting her life and also the family around her.
Unfortunately, our family also had to experience the catastrophic outcomes of a bad fall as my grandfather fell while getting ready to shower and suffered a very hard hit to his head and passed away the following afternoon.
