I have done the ladder fall thing myself. In 2005. Crutches for about six weeks. Heel was hell, but they didn't find a break. Haven't been up one since.

That was bad luck for her. Ladders are ridiculously dangerous. Very glad she was released and is recovering.

Last Saturday I received a call from my daughters neighbor, he said she had an accident & the ambulance was on the way.
I said I'd be right over, took about 7 minutes.

She was cleaning the gutters, on a ladder, the ladder slipped & she went too.

When I arrived she was on the stretcher, neck brace, talking, her ankle hurt & she heard a snap in her back when she landed on her feet, they acted sort of as shock absorbers.

She fractured her L2 vertebrae & sprained her ankle.
They operated Tuesday night & cemented the L2.

Amazingly she was released Thursday & is recovering well. She is limited, no lifting or bending & wears a brace for support for now. But she is VERY lucky!
No more ladders!!
