Today, I got one picture, no post.

Annabelle is in pain, she still has on the neck brace.

I hope they are putting railings everywhere.  I can't imagine a front porch high enough to fall off without a railing.  Little ones are there on holidays.

I am sorry to hear that Annabelle is having pain and hopefully that will subside with time.  Yes, railings are a must on porches, staircases. I can't imagine not having them to hold on to .  Bet wishes to Annabelle!

Prayers for Annabelle ... How do you know she has no railings @ECBG ? Have you visited her home that confirms that?😳

Thanks for posting @ECBG . Still sending prayers her way and hope she recovers soon.

She fell off of the porch.  She didn't say "through railings or off of steps".

I have never been to visit, although, we are FB friends.

You implied @ECBG that there were no railings when you said "I hope they put railings everywhere." I inferred there were no railings from your post when Annabelle fell.

My DH put up hand rails for one of our very elderly long time neighbors from his steps leading from the sidewalk, along the sidewalk and up the steps to the front porch and then to the front door.  We would watch him nervously as he made his way to his front door without the handrails being there..

Unfortunately a couple years later, he fell in his house and was unable to get up.  He laid there at least 2 days. he couldn't remember how many for sure.    One of our neighbors noticed his truck hadn't left for  couple days and he always went out for lunch and that his door hadnt been opened and asked us if we had seen him.  As we had not we did call the police for a welfare check.  Thank goodness she had noticed.  He was hospitalized for a week and transferred to rehab.  After a few weeks he did die in the rehab center.  Watch out for your neighbors.  If you have some without rails, encourage them to put them up.

Isn't it code to have railings on steps and elevated porches? 
I hope she gets better and better each day. Are her daughters there to help I wonder?

I read it the same way as you @Trinity11 .
