My friend, Paul, who lives about 40 minutes away from me, and is a bit older than me, was outside his home today when he had a bad fall.

He was lying on the ground for 45 minutes,unable to get back up. He finally managed to crawl to his car and use that to climb to his feet, but then his vertigo kicked in and he was stuck out by his car for anothe twenty minutes before he could get into the house.

And post about his experience on Facebook.

I called him when I saw the post and asked if he wanted me to come out and take him to the doctor. He said no, that he was just sore and embarassed.

SMH. I swear to God, I am about at the end of my tether with that man. He knows he's got shitty health, he knows he should make changes, but he never fucking acts on it.

I was so tempted when I saw the post, not even to respond. He didn't call me. But I felt like I had to call and so I did and now I'm walking around with my damn phone turned on so he can call me if things change and he needs me to come out and take him to the damned doctor.

Honestly, I wish he would just get better or just die.
