-- Bobbie fractured her hip

Hi Everyone,

We have had an abrupt change. My MIL Bobbie had a bad fall last

night and was rushed to the emergency room. The determined that she

has a fractured hip and needs to undergo surgery. She has been in

the emergency room since 7:30 last night and we were told this

morning the expected her surgery to be in approximately one hour.

Now it is 3:30 pm and she is still waiting. I explained all about

the problems with pain meds. But the doctors needed to give her

something because she was suffering greatly. The plan to do the

surgery by epedural rather than putting her fully out.

Since you have such a great prayer chain we would appreciate it if

you would add her to your list.

We were all set to travel to D.C. for the conference but it was not

meant to be. I had to cancel all our plans this morning. Sorry we

won't be able to join you.

I hope she pulls throught this surgery. I am worried that the Lewy

Body Dementia will harm her chance for recovery. We will have to

leave it in God's hands. We hate to lose the person we love but we

hate to see the horrible way this dementia hinders their quality of

life.

I will let you know when she is out of surgery.
