Oh, that sucks. Is she OK?
She is doing ok...she is more mad that she is going to miss work. Luckily it was a simple break and shouldn't require surgery.
Since she's still working, I'm hopeful that this this is a one time thing. For both of my parents, falls marked the beginning of the end--my dad's final month, and my mom being institutionalized in a nursing home for the last seven years.
I've really tried to increase my leg strength and improve my balance because of what happened to them.

Mrs Rad had a mild stroke a couple of weeks ago. We’re lucky, she’s doing well, damage limited to her vision center.
But getting old sucks.

Tell her that folks at GRB wish her the best. I'm sorry that occurred, but glad it wasn't far worse.

Hope she’s doing well and recovering. Strokes can just be little bumps in the road. I hope that’s the case.
