Mum tripped yesterday going in to a friends. She as a large gash in her forehead that required 23 stitches, another small cut just below her right eye that took 2 stitches and glue to close and a gash on her left shin just antibiotic ointment and a bandage for it. Her right eye is black and blue and swollen nearly closed. At least it was before bed last evening. It's not quite her normal wake up time so I haven't seen her yet this morning. Fortunately, the CT scans showed no internal injuries to her face or head. She had a very kind and gentle young resident doc who spent well over an hour carefully closing her wounds. Yes, he was attractive and married but had a wonderful sense of humor. He and mum kidded while he worked. The fact mum is retired nurse gave them something to chat about. For the record mum is not a good patient. She's not difficult or demanding rather she hates being the one tended to. Expecting a quiet day here.

Don't worry Sexy, I'm a professional!  

Most folks wouldn't be so bold as to confess that but then again it's you.

I felt bad that your mom got hurt.  Falls as we get older are more dangerous.  It is very good news that the CT scans did not show internal injuries.  It sounds like the care she got was very good. I think the humor was a comforting way to handle a situation that could have created a great deal of stress for both your mom and you.  Tell her I am sending my best wishes for a quick recovery.

Douglas please send my best wishes and she gets better soon

Nurses are well known to be bad patients, surely the staff should be attending to someone who needs attention  yes that’s you

As for her kidding around with the resident doc, at least she didn’t try to set you up with him like a certain grandmother did to me  it was just a little embarrassing 

I am keeping fingers crossed for her and sending a virtual

Hello young Albert

[Bucket1]

I'm off to bed after hearing good news about Dad. It seems only the staff have been infected with Covid. Easter visits are still on  Keeping fingers crossed on that front

Oh wow what a fright! Glad it's not too serious. How is she this morning?  and and extra gentle for her

[Headstall]

An exhilarating walk in the pouring rain. Only two kilometers but it was really coming down.  

[Drew Espinosa]

Howdy y'all!

@dughlas, wishing your mum a speedy recovery!
