The door was secured. The door wouldn't open! And neither would the storm
door which I had locked. I don't know how to remove a broken door knob much
less put a new one on and I was in far too much pain to attempt to tackle
that. Plus I wanted a new deadbolt and 4 keys. Whatever. The job is done
now.

Nobody brings medical problems on themselves. Perhaps with a few
exceptions. Like people who do not do what they are supposed to.
