Mom has a broken hip

[chicken]

Today was good because of hearing about the gay marriage decision in Mass.

But it was bad because I learned that on her first day out of the rehab/nursing facility, my Mom took a walk around her neighborhood (no longer a "prisoner"!) and fell, and broke her hip.

I knew this whole going home thing was too good to be true for her.

So that's some time in the hospital now, and rehab, and whatnot. :-(

That's definitely a good sign. I hope her cheerfulness rubs off on you, even though I know that sometimes, things like these are harder on the people who have to be there for support.
