Hello,

Here is the latest on Lorraine's falling...

"Lorraine told me she felt unsteady and would I help her to the bathroom.
She got up from bed, pulled her walker to her and I positioned myself
behind her. She pushed out the walker before her and fell head long into
the wall and to the floor. She scratched her cheek on the wall, landed
mostly on her left elbow. There is an abrasion on the inside of her right >upper arm and a slight bruise on her right elbow. The left elbow started >swelling immediately and is black and blue this morning. I asked if she >wanted me to call the hospital. "No," she said, "I am okay." I lifted her

We went to the hospital today and had the elbow x-rayed. Yepper, it was >broken and the Osteopath was astonished that she could stand the pain. Be >that as it may Lorraine's arm is now splinted and in about three week the >splint comes off to see if further treatment is necessary. Until the arm
is healed both Lorraine and I will be on her walker.
