When rolling me the morning the carers were not careful enough to ensure both my legs stayed on the bed. A combination of this and the sheets fabric meant that both my legs fell off the bed. They are now hurting me and will probably be sore for a day or two.

I am lucky that most days after my care my pain will almost completely go or at the very least go to my level of normal, if I am positioned correctly in my wheelchair. But after this incident I don’t think that today will be one of those days.

I’m well aware that accidents happen but sometimes they happen because you don’t take enough care. In situations like what happened to me, when they happen you are not the one left suffering, someone else is. So please take extra care when doing something when someone is at risk of becoming hurt if you do it wrong.
