[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP you sound like a control freak. Stop blaming the puppy. You can equally be at blame for not putting a puppy somewhere safe while you were carrying things on the stairs or not holding on or whatever. You sound like one of those people who never take responsibility. I feel sorry for you daughter. [/quote]

OP here.  How is this any different than getting rear-ended at a stop light?  Would you blame the person who got rear-ended for driving a car that day and being in the wrong place at the wrong time?

I was walking down the stairs holding some laundry, and I thought the puppy was not around.  It seemed safe at the time to walk down the stairs.  I wasn't able to hold the hand rail because I was carrying the laundry.  Sometimes you can't hold the hand rail if you have something in both hands.

Since that incident, whenever I am walking down the stairs I make sure I know where the puppy is, and I always hold the hand rail.

That doesn't change the fact that I now have a life-long, permanent injury that bothers me every day.  I'm in an online support group for this condition, and that helps a lot.  They're the only ones who understand what I'm going through.  I have some resentment toward the puppy but mostly I just regret adopting the puppy in the first place.  It probably would have been better not to get another dog after our elderly dog died this past fall.
