Broken Bones

About a week and a half ago, Mom fell in her apartment and hurt her knee. It got pretty swolen so Caity and I took her to the ER for x-rays and thankfully, there were no broken bones. Since then, she's had a pain in her chest on the right side that, not only has not gotten better, but has actually got worse with time.

Mom, being the galivanting senior that she is, is leaving on a trip to Florida on Sunday and wanted to get this pain checked out before she left so that she could relax with her friends. Well, it turns out that Mom has a broken rib!! Mom's doctor had her go and get an x-ray this afternoon. The doctor gave her some medicine for pain but other than that, there isn't really anything that can be done for it. So what's Mom going to do? She's going to go to Florida anyway! You gotta love it.

Ave Maria!
