Took a nasty tumble

[Seasoned]

I'm an amateur actor and last night's rehearsal I took a pretty sensational fall off the the back of the stage, backwards and head first. The first thing I thought about was bleeding. I wasn't. The second thought was my neck fusion surgery, 11 months ago. My neck feels ok. I hit my head in two places and the left side of by back. It hurts from my waist to my shoulder blade. I hope I'm functioning tomorrow it's dress rehearsal with an audience.

Thanks for reading. I needed to share.

Well I'm glad you are ok. Sounds like it could have been nasty.

Secondly, what are you performing in, and what role?

Break a leg.

sorry, too soon?;)

Srsly, though, if you're feeling the slightest dizyness, etc., please be sure to a physician.

I hope all goes well tomorrow!

If I may, what kind of performance is it?

 

[Seasoned]

Got checked at the ER with a CT scan and a chest x-ray. No issues, thank god except soreness. Beak a leg, indeed!!!

I'm in The Tempest.

Thanks, guys! I play Gonzalo.

Thanks, guys! I play Gonzalo.

Ahh, one of the only good men; it's rather fitting, if you ask me

 

[Seasoned]

^Wow! Thank you.

We opened last night! I'm sore but doing ok. I'm relieved there was no serious damage. Thank you for the compliments. I'm blushing.

Cool beans!

I'm so jealous of those who can get up on stage. It sounds like a blast.

wow - horrible accident - glad you're okay - and consider yourself lucky to have got up and walked away from that potential mess!! -

remember: OLD people have to be very careful -- they fall down a lot -- and break stuff !! look into "Life Alert" because next time - you may have fallen - and you can't get up - then were would we be? huh? where...

srsly - take care of yourself -- and two more words for you !! >> hug you !
