4. That information about stroke following a fall is really interesting

I knew that sometimes a person doesn't break her hip in a fall; her hip breaks, which causes a fall.

I just had a bone density test, and while I've always felt I had nice thick, heavy bones (handy for explaining overweight), I was shocked to be told I have some osteoporosis. But my doctor doesn't want to treat me for it until I've finished my extensive orthopedic surgery plans.
