Mom

I got home like 6.40, ran about, and was back out the door for the Fire- America game @ toyota park immediately. They were getting beat @ halftime - although they had the run of play - when I got the calls to go home because Mom had a fall. She was taken to Little Company of Mary Hospital (where we were all born) and after a long wait, it turned out she needed a cast on her shoulder. She is in good shape, but its rough ever to see Mom @ 88 in a hospital bed.

She'd let Bolo out in the yard, and then disc. that she'd locked the back door behind her. When she tried to go around the front, she fell in the gangway and hurt herself. Neighbourhood kids saw her and dialed 911. It was her slippers, we believe - that were to blame.

Really I wished I could stay @ home today - sister.4 is, and sister.3 is coming over - but I had way monumental stuff to get done (See yesterday's post - still not fixed) and couldn't skip the day. It's soccer stuff too - if only what I had asked yesterday was done yesterday - ............ but no.

She's fine. It's not good, broken nbones @ any age - but 88 is worrisome. But, again, she's fine. Little bitt of pain, and bed ridden. Worried only about her comfort right now. So, it's ok.
