Dad 346: Spouse Is the One

(Please keep my mom in your prayers! Dad explains below. ~ Tracy)

Derf Here! Another beautiful pre-spring day melting a lot of snow. Tomorrow should be even better.

This will be a brief blogpost on the last 24 hours.

Everyone has probably heard that one in three elderly people will fall this year. Well, Mary Lou took a tumble last night getting ready to brush her teeth before slipping into bed. Phone call 911. Of course, Glen was here as soon as the call went out.

Off to Maine Medical Center around 7:00 PM. X-rays showed a break above the left elbow and a fracture of the collarbone. Very painful. (Fortunately these breaks are on the stroke-affected side.)

I returned from Maine Med and was in bed by 4:00 AM. Was up at eight and spent the afternoon in the hospital. At 5:30 PM Spouse was transferred to New England Rehab for in-patient therapy. I'll see her tomorrow.

More details next week, soooo....

Until next time!

Toodle Pip!

Derf!
