Should it be:

It's you who doesn't know the facts of the case.
This sentence doesn't make sense to me:
I want to come to your house to visit you.
Why wouldn't it be:
I want to go to your house to visit you.

I hurt my back years ago in a car accident. My back has been getting worse over the years. Today I can barely walk and I'm scared. I don't know how I'll take care of myself if I can't walk. I'm just lying on the sofa all day.
