Slip & Fall Negligencew

on 5/13/08 I fell at an ALF facility while exiting a door into a courtyard. It was evening, the overhead light was out and a wire garden trellis/border was leaning into the walkway. I tripped over it, fell into a flower bed from a raised sidewalk and broke the tibia & fibula in my ankle. There was intense pain & I could not stand. 911 was called, an ambulance took me to the hosp where I remained for aprox. 1 wk, then was in a nursing home & rehab ctr. 3-4 wks. I'm in a leg cast, non wt.bearing & wheelchair bound for at least another month or more. I'm told it will be some time before I can walk & there may be permanent damage done to my back, knee and ankle as a result of this agravating a previous condition. There were several witnesses & the owners & mgmt. of the ALF knew of the broken light and faulty flower trellis. Do you think there may be a cause of action for negligence for medical expenses and suffering?
