Welcome back!

We have just spent practically all day at the local hospital emergency room.

We found out that it is official that mom broke one of her ribs when she fell on the 23 rd of last month.

The doctor said that there is little to do except to keep an eye on her and make sure that she does not get too enthusiastic with any movement on that particular side. Evidently broken ribs are mostly not bound any more since it limits the person’s breathing and they might get pneumonia. Since she is in her late 70’s, that would be particularly bad.

Tylenol and naps are the best for right now.
