Kittykrazee OMG! So very sorry to hear about your mum. What a mess I know! All the waiting at the hospital and changes in routine can take a toll on everyone, not just mom.
I have known 5 ppl that have had broken hips. My Grandpa has had that happen to him 3 times!!!!
My question is, how in the world did humanity deal with this phenomena 100 or more years ago?
I'm thinking they didn't!

Maybe it's our crappy diet, lacking in calcium and magnesium and vitamin D. ???? Or maybe we are just living longer. Or it's all the above!
I wish your mum a speedy, painless recovery. We are sending some positive energy your way, so u can pass it on.
