MUM

Hello there ...this is Lyn , Allys daughter . I am just writing a short note to let you know that my mum had a really nasty fall and spend most of yesterday at Hospital being X Rayed. She has a lovely black eye an awful injury to her shoulder (hence l am writing this as she cannot move her right arm )also a badly cut wrist and a very swollen right knee....when she does something she makes a good job of it !!!!!! I am looking after her at the moment what with mum and her painkillers and me with mine we make a right pair. Anyway Mum will be reading your blogs but will not be able to comment for a few days.

Take Care

Love

Lyn

Big big virtual hugs to your dear Mum, Lyn.  Hope she's not too shaken up.  Yes, she does seem to do things thoroughly.  And poor you too.  Hope the spring will see you both well on the way to recovery.
Best love,

Lyn,
How good of you to write for her and fill us in.   The 2 of you are both in a bit of a rut I'd say.  Thinking of you both...please send love to your mom from me.
Thanks!

Thank you Lyn for letting us know and being such a good daughter to watch after your mum.  The two of you on painkillers are sure to make for a sorry sight.  My greatest fear since I live by  my self and have many steps to make is falling like that.  I always hold to the stair rail .  Both of you take good care and I wish you both speedy recoveries and good health.  'On Ya' - ma

Thanks for telling us Lyn.  I'm not sending your mum any hugs because I know all too well that hugs jolly well hurt when you've got a bad arm.  She has my sympathy, she really does.  Don't let her read anyting funny either!!

I am so sorry to hear about Ally's fall. I have fallen before and it is no fun, though I only suffered an injured knee and hit my head but did not injure it but ruined my glasses. Tell her to take care.

Oh no! Not my Dear friend Ally now!
Your Mum and I have taken pages from each other's lives more often than I care to remember. However, falling down is my copyrighted act, and I won't stand for her honing in on my territory any more in the future. There's only room for one like me around here.

Please pass on my love and best wishes for her comfort and a very speedy recovery. Ally is so dearly loved among this community that I'm sure you will be inundated with good wishes.

Lyn, I hope you are doing well also.

Ally, it sounds as if you were bounced around, not just
as if you'd had one fall. Did you fall down spiral steps in
a Dutch windmill !!??  Good grief, I had no idea you were
so athletic! SPPEDY RECOVERY OLD GIRL AND PLSE DON'T SCARE US AGAIN SO DREADFULLY.

No hugs of course, but I blow kisses for recovery
in your general direction hoping I hit all the tender places.

Hello Ally , so sorry to hear about your fall hope you ar feeling a bit easier today and will soon be fighting fit again. Careful not to get all those painkillers mixed up lots of love and best wishes. Love Joan.

Sheesh @ you both being copy cats of me <g> Seriously Lyn i know the gall bladder pain all too well and eventually mine was taken out emergency as not even morphine could kill the pain...{{{{{Ally}}}}} your injuries sound the same as mine and the same side as well...My shoulder is still in a lot of pain and it's now 6 or 7 weeks since my fall...If your shoulder isn't broken then you will need to move it gently or it will cease up completely...Do hope that they have ordered a physio appointment for you as well...And that you get a nice male physio like i have :o) I still can't type for too long, or drive much or do the housework...If your shoulder starts to swell up be sure to go and get anti inflammatories to go with the painkillers...Hey we could start a gammy right hand shoulder club <g>   {{{{hugs}}}} to you both Caff xxxxxx
