Sally's in the hospital
 
Last week Sally posted on another forum that she had fallen trying to get from her scooter into her daughter's van to go to the Dr. for a routine appointment. She hurt her good leg. Her daughter could not help her successfully get back on her scooter so 911 was called to get her back into the house. Last we heard she was on the couch on a "Puppy Pee Pad" with ice on her leg. Then nothing for 4 days.

Yesterday I found an old address book that had her home and cell numbers from about 7 years ago. She is in the hospital. Nothing is broken but she is in a fair amount of pain and having problems with spasms from the injury. PT is working with her and she hopes she will be home sometime this week. She asked me to post this news here and ask you all for your healing thoughts and prayers and tell you not to worry.

Telling us not to worry is like setting a plate of chocolate in front of us and telling us to try and not eat it! :D

I hope she can arrange in home care to come and help her out. I know she wants to be at home.

Thanks for passing along the information, Cherie.

Please let Sally know prayers and thoughts are going her way. I hope she is home and doing better soon.

Oh Sally, we'll all be so glad when you're out of the hoss piddle.

Thanks Cherie

And very best wishes for Sally. I hope this is only a temporary setback for her.

There is no doubt in my mind she will have a CNA and a PT at home at the very least. I am sure they will push a skilled nursing facility but I know Sally too well to think she would allow that if there was any possible way to avoid it. I will try to call again later today and update after the doc, PT, and dischange team have visited her and put their heads together.

Cherie, please tell her we're praying for her and miss her...

Add my thoughts and prayers to the list. I do hope she recovers quickly and can get some in home help.
