ALL IN THE FAMILY…. My Husband and I Are on the Osteoporosis Journey Together

When I was younger, I couldn’t have predicted I would develop osteoporosis, and I certainly couldn’t have predicted that my husband and I would both be diagnosed within two years of each other. At the age of 64, I was at an art fair in a park when I tripped on a cord lying across the grass. It was a short, soft fall to the grass, but when I got back up, my wrist hurt in a way I hadn’t experienced before. Because it was a simple fall, I wanted to shake it off and ignore it. But after about twenty minutes, I told my husband I thought I should have it checked out.
