I am nearly 68 years old and I got my first broken bone yesterday. Had stepped up on the back bumper of my pickup to put the suction line for our pump into a 55 gal. drum to pump some oil into our waste oil furnace tank. My nephew went back inside to start the pump.

Had to lay there and yell until nephew heard me and come back and help me up. Happened about 2:30 endured the pain until after supper. Got to the emergency a few minutes before 6 pm. Got x-ray and confirmed 1 broken rib. Dr. ordered CAT scan to check for damage to spleen, that was negative. Had all that done and started back home by 10 pm. On pain meds for a few days hope to be able to get back on a tractor in a few weeks. Only good part was a good looking young female Dr. treated me in the ER.
