Take precautions when you hang Christmas or other holiday lights outside.
The CBS affiliate (KTVT/Channel 11) here just aired a segment about 2 different men (both named Rodriguez, no relation) who have spinal cord injuries after falling while hanging Christmas lights on their homes. Ironically, both are named Rodriguez (not related though) and are at the same hospital, across the hall from each other. Doctors don't know if they will regain use of their legs. One man slipped while on a ladder, fell 15 feet onto his neck/head. Other man doesn't remember what happened.

Doctors don't yet know if eithe rman will walk again.

Don't want to hear that anyone else has suffered the same injuries as these two men.
 
We had a gentleman lose his life last week after slipping off his ladder while hanging decorations on his house. Be careful people. We'd like to have you here for the holidays.
