Poor guy’s pretty banged up. He landed on his left side, hitting his head, elbow and foot and doing damage to each. No concussion, though, thank God. Dad has a broken heel and a broken arm. Apparently he fell about 5 feet. He’s tough and in good shape for his age, but broken bones are serious for anybody 71 years old.

Ironically, the man was a lineman for Edison for 35 years, and falls off a loading dock in the city dump. If you’re wondering whether a claim/litigation for premises liability has cross my mind, you betcha. Maybe we’ll discuss it when he’s better.
