She Fell and CAn't get Up!

My mom fell over yesterday afternoon!

she slipped in her socks on the stairs to the family room.
She yelled for my hard of hearing father who was in his office.
The dog was barking.
Dad finally came out to find out "what the Damn dog was making all the racket about" and found my mom lying on the floor. So much pain from her ankle she really wanted to throw- up ............... lots.
She rested for a few hours and then tried to get up to go to bed.
Once again ....... vomit pain.
So off they went to the hospital.
Its not broken. But she has a splint on that she is not allowed to take off till Thursday. When they might jsut x-ray again. I guess it was too swollen last night to see anything?
So mom is sitting.
DAd is taking care of her.
She did one of those old people things.
She's uber pissed cause she'[s been telling my grandparents, who are 90+ to be careful cuz if they fall.........
They've never fallen.
Poor Mommy!!

Where's red alert when you need it?
