Debbie took a bad fall last night, seriously hurting her ribs. I got her into bed, but around 3 AM she was in severe pain. I gave her a Motrin and called 911. They came and had her take another Motrin. They said there was no indication that she had broken her rib, and that getting her downstairs would be very painful for her, and that she would only be lying on a stretcher in the ER for quite some time if they took her to the hospital. So we decided to wait. She got through the night as well as could be expected. I stayed awake until about 5 AM and finally caught a few hours of sleep.
We’ll see how it goes. Blogging obviously will take a backseat for now
Oh no. Sorry to hear this.

Prayers from here. Hopefully all goes well, as well as can be expected, and you both rest this off. You probably called her doctor? Her ribs would need to be looked at, and the doctor could order x-rays and prescribe pain meds.
ReplyDeleteHope all turns out well. Falls can be a serious business at our age...
ReplyDeleteHoping all goes as well as it can, Frank.
