Mom had an appointment with the ortho surgeon today that she has seen for several years for her back. He said that he is very glad that she didn't break her hip since she could have done that very easily with the way she fell. Anyway, he said that he didn't see a break at this time but hairline breaks take a couple of weeks to show up. So, he gave her orders to take her pain pills and rest for the next two weeks. She is already bruised and VERY sore. She can't walk very much and it hurts to sit, lay, stand, etc. So, in other words she is not comfortable in any spot. Her recliner is the best spot she said but after about 10 minutes she starts to get uncomfortable. The pain pills are non-narcotics since she is allergic to narcotics just like Kristi is. This is a friend of Tylenol - just a tad stronger then Tylenol. She goes back to see him on Feb 4th , I think is the date.

Glad she's not hurt badly, just sore is time related. I told Larry that I now knew where his clumsiness comes from--MOM
