I squatted down for just a few minutes to organise the bottom shelf in my larder and then couldn’t get up. Somehow my legs didn’t respond and I was stuck. I had to pull myself up on furniture in a most ungainly fashion.
I do remember my mother telling me it happened to her but can’t remember what age she was.
Does this happen to everyone? Can I risk it happening again?
Is there anything I can do to reverse the situation?
Help needed fellow grans.
