The Female Parental Unit fell and broke the same wrist she broke three years ago.
She really did a good job this time - all the pins and plates from the previous surgery are KAPUT!
The local ortho doctor sent her directly to a hand/wrist specialist in Boone.
The wrist is repairable it's her age and the question of anesthesia the doctors are working out.
But
to quote the EMT's yesterday
"we're bring in a 89 year old female with a possible broken wrist and she's a Firecracker!!"
I'll keep you posted....
Oh dear, you have a funny way of describing your broken wrist. The Female Parental Unit and "she's a firecracker." Prayers for healing sent your way.
ReplyDeleteIt was my Mom that fell.
DeleteOuch. Hoping they can put that "firecracker" back together. Sending prayers for your Mom.
ReplyDeleteIt is good to find humor in a terrible thing. BUT knowing how much worst it could have been. I hope in 8 years someone will refer to me as a 'firecracker'. LOL Our best and prayers for mama.
