I hate stairs.
I nearly got killed falling down the stairs in our house last year. My foot got caught under me and was almost completely severed. Took me 5 months to walk again, and I still have bruises, scars and a metal plate in my right ankle.
And earlier this year, the wife of our long-time family doctor actually died falling on stairs.
Unfortunately almost everything I see being built in recent years has at least two levels, if not three. I can't understand how anyone can stand living in a townhouse.
